> Someone who claims they are using 2FA, but actually authenticates with email and/or phone numbers, is committing fraud.

OK. I'll send you the list of all the companies that have done 2FA with me via email or a telephone number, and you can hit them up for fraud. Good luck! /s




Send the list to the FTC, not to me. Or file suit against them yourself. I don't have standing to do so because I haven't been defrauded.

The fact that some people get away with telling a lie isn't generally a very strong argument that it's not a lie.


It was a joke! Good luck! /s


HN is a place where sarcasm is sometimes intentionally taken at face value because it leads to more interesting discussions.

People who use sarcasm tend to be very proud of it, but the aggressive-defensive undertone hinders productive conversations.


I understand your point of view, which is why I tagged my comment with a "/s".
