Do you use 2 step verification?




I've started using it on a couple of important accounts. I'm still apprehensive about using it though as if for whatever reason don't have access to my phone and/or backup codes it seems I'm screwed. Still it's better than the alternative of getting my accounts hacked I suppose. What about you guys/gals?

I use it at work because we have to and it is such a pain when trying to login anywhere but my desk. Like I always have to go grab my phone. And yeah I would totally be screwed if I didn't have my phone. But I never use it with my personal accounts.

I use it for some things. I have to use it for work. I was using it for a little bit for my personal github account but it's really annoying because it means you can't log in via the command line anymore, you have to get these special 'usage tokens'.

Whenever I can.

Since I only have an iPod, and virtually no sites/services will let me use any online service phone numbers however for 2 step verification, it's pretty rare that I can.

Any reason for that?

Yeah I honestly just don't like all the hassle. I do worry about security a little bit, but I kind of just don't want to be bothered every time I need to login.

Fair enough. I kinda feel the same way and may turn it off at some point. I have enough security with or without it so eh.
