I mean you could just create a dummy Google account for free. Mine has an email alias attached and I gave them a fake name, a voip phone number also with no personally attached info, and no recovery email. I only use it for YouTube so I don’t need gmail nor do I care if I get locked out of the account because I could just make another if I felt like it.
what country are you in?
