Why do sites that claim to be alternative, like Gab, MeWe and Rumble, ask for email and your phone number ?

Asking for your email is somewhat understandable, but asking for your phone number ?

I don't believe that sites that ask for this really are alternatives to the big techs like Google and Facebook.

I liked Ruqqus and Poal for not asking or needing email, much less phone number.
