I would prefer one from Apple as well, but mostly because my laptop (which was built by Apple) only has USB-C ports, so carrying an USB-A adapter, like the one shown in the picture [1], would be a deal breaker for me and many others. Something like the YubiKey 4C Nano [2] would be good.

- toyg 8y agoIsn't it incredibly risky to leave it in-port? If the laptop is stolen, the thief also gets all your logins...
- patejam 8y agoIf someone has physical access, isn't it considered compromised anyway?
- ufmace 8y agoIf it gets stolen, and the thief is actually trying to take over your accounts, then the process of proving that you are the rightful owner is probably easier if you have the key than if the thief has both the laptop and the key.

- daxelrod 8y agoI’ve been interested in setting something like this up. Are you aware of software that exists for it already?
