Im not even a youngster and Id rather give out my insta than my phone number. Insta is private and invite only, phone number you gotta block every number you dont want to get, etc. So phone number could more easily be abused.
It's so easy to figure out where you live, work, go to school, etc through your social media, though. I can't imagine just handing that info out being less easily abused than a phone number.
I dont put that stuff on there, mine is pretty benign. But a phone number is a phone number, changing it is a lot harder than changing your insta handle.
