The biggest cause of getting hacked is still human error. I've known more people get hacked from literally giving their password away (or in a couple cases people literally beating login info out of them) than all the techno wizardry you see on TV. Well, for your average Joe at least. 2FA can't fix that, but it's not a bad safety net.

2FA actually can fix that, to an extent. Even if you give your password away, the whole point of 2FA is that it notifies you when somebody is trying to log in from any location but your own, and even the dumbest person should realize "Hey, I'm not currently logging in to X..."
