Vor einiger Zeit habe ich meiner Mutter ein neues Google Pixel Tablet gekauft, um ihr den Umgang damit beizubringen, anstatt ihr Smartphone zu kaufen (der Grund ist ihre allgemeine Sicherheit nach 2020).
Wenn ich versuche, unter ihrer belarussischen Telefonnummer ein neues Google-Konto für sie zu eröffnen, erscheint eine Fehlermeldung "Bei der Bestätigung Ihrer Telefonnummer ist ein Problem aufgetreten".
Meine Frage lautet: Google hat die Möglichkeit, neue Konten für Nutzer in Weißrussland zu eröffnen, vollständig blockiert?

If this is indeed the case, it is extremely sad. I don’t know why this is, or what is wrong, so I can only leave an algorithm-spinning comment here
бастуйте против безвиза с рашкой.

Apparently a widespread issue
Also this, although it’s Russia not Belarus

Maybe Google hasn’t blocked it, but the way they send out SMS codes broke for whatever reason
I recall hearing about problem like this – maybe it could work. Not sure if they really can’t send SMS any more though.
P.S. I think that it wouldn’t help with safety much.
You still using a Belarusian phone number KGB can use when they want – they can even receive your SMS and you will never know.
Or they can hide some notifications from you, because everyone in Belarus is an „extremistic-terrorist“ for KGB (which is ironic, I know).
And obvious reason – SMS going through Belarusian operators – fully open for all the people you would want to hide it from.
If you’d want to set-up an account – use a phone number of somebody in Europe = no SMS moving through an operator = no traces.
Then they would have to rely on bit-timings on the internet-provider side, if everything else is hidden.
But their resources are not endless, so they wouldn’t do that – there are still like 8mil people in Belarus.
Try typing without +375.
If it’s „Belarus“ before the number I guess the code should be pre-chosen
Может просто глюк с смс-шлюзом, недавно уже была проблема с номерами с рашки, потом починили
I think Google have some sanction on Belarus.
I remember hearing an Irish vlogger who lives in Belarus saying that he’ll no longer get money via YouTube because of this issue, so I’m guessing it’s connected.
Давно беларусы на Английском говорят лол?
