Pretty much my hope. If it's so easy to snoop on cell traffic my hope then is that the app communication is encrypted using modern standards and airtight. Though I'm sure you're right since these apps are more under the microscope. It's probably fine.
- vlovich123 8y agoI had my Uber account hacked even though it had SMS 2FA enabled (from Russia as best I could tell). Now maybe there was some flaw in Uber's implementation but I don't trust SMS 2FA. Talk to any competent security researcher - SMS 2FA is only mildly better than no 2FA. The fact that cellular traffic to this day isn't encrypted properly[1] even though LTE was supposed to should indicate just how horrible cellular providers are at infosec & what happens when they drive security requirements.
