- PeterisP 9y agoThat's a true problem, and one that needs solving even if SMS isn't used for 2FA. It's worth noting that this is one more case of a USA-specific problem caused by inability of commercial providers to securely verify identities of people; the same thing is much more difficult (though still possible) and thus very rare elsewhere.
