Duh, about everyone that doesn't live in a first world country?
A lot of people can have easy access to the internet these days in public places.

And how do they access this public wifi, duh? On a potato? You're making gross exaggerations based on inaccuracies to try fit your argument.

Even if that wasn't the case, If you are a guy living in a poor country that emigrates to a more advanced country, what is he going to prioritize, a cheap internet connection (if he can't find a public wifi which he always could) or buying a McSmartphone to use apps?

Obviously the first thing would be something to connect to the internet (unless you're going to connect via that potato). A phone is much cheaper than an Internet connection or a pc and like you said you could just use public wifi to save money on an expensive Internet connection (but if someone has the money to emigrate to an 'advanced country' I'm sure he has enough money to buy an 'advanced' phone (which are very cheap nowadays)). Not gonna get far without one to be honest (unless people can contact him on his trusty potato).

Again, this, and the fact this is the only exchange forcing 2FA on people are objective facts. It's all about having options. 2FA compromises your privacy when you have to give your personal phone number, people should have an option to risk less security for more privacy.

Nobody is forcing you to do anything. You have a choice of whether to use this exchange or not and if you don't like the minimum requirements of this one or any others you don't like for whatever reasons just don't use them. And don't give them your personal number if you're that worried about privacy and get yourself a burner phone so no privacy has been compromised but you've just doubly protect your money in the process.

Never in my life I used 2FA and I never lost a single coin

Yeah, right up until the day that you do. I've never had an std so I guess it's ok to go bareback every time too? You may or may not know how to secure your devices or coins 100% but many others don't and it's usually those ones that are naive enough to not use 2-f that get burnt because they don't know what's good for them (ie 2-f) or how to safely protect their coins. Every time I see someone on here who is complaining that they've lost their coins from blockchain.info or an exchange I always ask them if they had 2-factor set up. I'm sure you can guess what the answer is every single time - "No".

hmm pretty graphic terms hilarious but ur point is perfectly valid... logic seems to have gone out the window here :?
