Comment on Euro cops take down cybercrime network with 49M fake accounts

Comments

If websites didn't force insecure SMS 2FA, these services wouldn't be neccesary. It's like we can't have nice things anymore because criminals can't have nice things so you can't have them either.

Try entering a landline whenever you're asked a phone number for your account. They say the number is invalid, which I find insulting because I know my number very well and it's been around for longer than those websites.

And now this article insults me again by saying it's only used for criminal activities.

The gall.
