Two factor authentication is the bane of my existence. It is #ANNOYING! I misplace all the time. This may be related to my #ADHD but maybe not since that hasn’t improved since my doctor put me on Vyvanse while everything else in my life more-or-less has.
From a security standpoint I get it, but I do get so concerned about how much of one’s identity is tied to your phone these days. Not only does that hurt people who chose not to have a cell phone, but how easy is it for me to lose everything if someone else
steals my cell phone.
In fact Facebook requiring me to activate #2FA to continue to utilize my account was the primary driving factor between me using Friendica as my primary social media now rather than Facebook, even though I first joined the ‘verse back in 2011, when it
was called simply open source microblogging and was pretty much just

its previous protocols, StatusNet and Pump.io, have fell out of favor). @passwords@infosec.pub @neurodiverse@hexbear.net @netsec@links.hackliberty.org @adhd@kbin.social
