I have my 2FA in Notification Center and consider this fine given that it's second factor. With that, it's about eight seconds for me involving one slide of my finger. I'm also mystified that you think support for 2FA and mandatory 2FA are the same thing, particularly for something like Netflix.
- cm2187 10y agoI am not arguing about support vs mandatory. Just that I am not convinced 2FA is a compeling alternative. At least the way I see it implemented. I like the idea behind SQRL, which still requires another device, so still inconvenient, but at least it does not rely on the server sending a message through a slow protocol. The website displays a QR code, you launch an app, scan the QR code, this app connects to the server and authenticate you through cryptography. No login or password to type, no message to wait for or to copy manually. No privacy concern since it does not rely on a third party. I could live with that.
- jsmthrowaway 10y agoIf you're discussing sales, you are arguing mandatory. Duo is the counterpoint to 2FA being cumbersome.
- nicky0 10y ago2FA doesn't have to be done over email/SMS. Nearly all websites these days support Google Authenticator protocol enabling use of a wide race of app/devices (for example my Garmin watch) to produce the code. No need to wait for an email/SMS.
