Even 2FA that involves you receiving a call is more secure than 2FA that involves you getting a text, but of course that too should not be used, ever. It's just that SMS is that much worse. I wish I could share on HN the technique anyone anywhere can use to take over any mobile number's SMS traffic within a minute so we can discuss it at great detail, but obviously I know better and would never do it. Unfortunately this knowledge is not limited to myself and many people out there know this especially after being in telecom for a while.
