Illutian:
It's in beta, but seems to work

For Android users you'll be using Google's Authenticator.

Mo:
Great! Everyone should be using 2-factor authentication for every service they can.

Gmail for sure also.

20 years ago I had to work in a vault with a bunch of strangers because there was tech that could remotely read computer monitors and pick up the vibrations from keyboards and typewriters.

Authenticators are just a placebo, they add no real protection, just another layer of something that can wrong due to human error.

420, one question.

Do you lock your doors at night?

:P

No point, my sleepwalking next door neighbor got evicted and the feeble lock wouldn't keep anyone else out. I half expect the deadbolt to fall out again every time I stick the key in.

About a decade ago I lived in an apartment building with a locked front gate, locked front door, and an on-site building manager. It didn't stop the building's maintenance man from getting maced and beaten by a junkie in the basement. I'm just glad I had the presence of mind not to go down there in my underwear at 4 am to see what all the racket was about.
