Tell you what... Two-factor authentication that requires a phone number and there will be a whole bunch leave here including myself.
This is a direct form of real personal physical identification including full name and physical address. Very few with any knowledge of how it actually works will use a site with 2FA. You don’t want your phone number in ANY database... Anyone who does is foolish and just asking for even more security risks.
And no... There is no system on the planet that is secure and can claim that this data will never be breached. This site is now in the Cloud and on servers in the old world who demands that data is turned over whenever requested. While the FR domain might not, their host just might and probably without notice.
IF they make it so difficult to use, then we will quit using it. My observation is that there are a few on this site that get their personal kicks by posting outrageous liberal trash, just to get the reactions or clicks...If that is what they do for fun, then I hope they go somewhere else.
I thought they were using their own hardware at a hosting center. If so, that's not cloud.
That argument has merit. Maybe just a more complex pword, and email conformation?
