Per @racheltobac: 75% of Twitter 2FA users are using SMS-based authentication. In theory those users could switch to authenticator apps (or pay 😂) but they probably won’t. Smart people keep saying things like “but authenticator apps will still be free and those won’t require you to pay, plus they’re more secure.” That’s true! But also completely misunderstands what’s about to happen.

 @matthew_d_green all the most useful Twitter news is coming out unofficial sources.

Does that apply to SMS only, or is it now broken, for e-mail, too? (I was able to get a 2FA code, via e-mail, to get an archive, a few days ago, but I'm unwilling to try logging in/out, to see what happens)... |
