At least weekly, I need to re-enter by name/password to log in to my Gmail account, regardless of my keeping it open whenever the browser is open, which is most of the time. It's open, I watch a video, it's open, I watch a video, I go back, it needs to log in again.
Every time I log in, it asks for a mobile phone number, with just a tiny "skip this" link, which then forces me to confirm that I do in fact wish to "skip this step" despite the enormous benefits afforded by giving them the number to a phone that doesn't exist.
