    What evidence would they have to arrest people on?

    Message in big group chat and phone number. Message can for example say that war is bad, and as result you will be charhed with “discreditation of army”.

    Especially now that people don’t have to share phone numbers to add a contact

    Phone number that tied to your passport. Yep, not sharing phone number to add a contact will magically help here.

      That’s fair, one reason I stay out of big groups, though you can set it not to be displayed to anyone, so I’m not fully grasping your argument.

      What do you mean by passport? It will a bit, if someone doesn’t know the phone number of an account that sent a message.

        Is it something new? I don’t remember it being a thing.

        In certain countries(Russia) you need passport to buy SIM card. So phone number is tied to person.
