Twilio has an incentive to make "the spirit of 2FA" worse, because SMS-only is how they make money. Either OTP 2FA will be more complicated and adopted less, or they'll own the entire space, like in Sendgrid's case.

Anyone get the bug where you can't get away from the Safari tab that's screen timed because anything you type into the address bar gets deleted by another popup?

They disabled autofill in the Firefox/Chrome extensions and won't provide an older version that worked or even a download of the 1P7 app.

Don’t throw away the “this is off the record, player” line. That’s gold.

Your question is why do they bring a compact piano to the tiny desk concert?

Same thing with the ads every 5 minutes always interrupting a complex part of the woodworking video I'm half watching. Thanks for the reminder to focus on real work, State Farm.

Discover bank also offers something like this for free, but I can't tell if it's as capable as other services. https://www.discover.com/security/online-privacy-protection/

That's because this is actually a data validation service for brokers. Most of their data is junk or incomplete, but now they know which pieces belong to actual people who want to pay money for it to be deleted.

Correct, it's important to be meek and roll over to make it in sales.

You don't seem as curious as you say you'd be, framing all criticism as hostility or simple antagonism. I don't think you've considered what you're missing not trying to understand why people don't care about bitcoin.

I was hoping this website would tell me how to identify a 737 Max from the inside or from my gate. Trust but verify.

I use Ting because it’s the only provider other than Fi that offers TOTP 2FA without SMS fallback. They wrote about their SIM swap policies here: https://help.ting.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360030105653-...
