[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1806373, member: 396914"] I guess I just don't understand the rancor over 2FA. I have it turned on and all that happens is that when I log in on a new device I get asked to enter the six digit code they sent to my already registered device(s). If I'm home, yes, my iPad, MBP and iPhone all "ding" with that same code, but then again, when I'm out, it just comes to my iPhone. So what's the big deal? Why the visceral reaction to it? As one who has been the victim of stolen personal information I'm onboard with the additional security. So educate me, somebody, why is 2FA so onerous? [/QUOTE]
