Ring Users Required to Use Two Factor Authentication
- danso 7y agoI don't have a Ring device so I obviously don't know all the features/use cases, but were there a particular facets/features of Ring that made requiring 2-factor auth particularly problematic (e.g. "friction")? For example, I had read Ring made it easy [0] to allow multiple accounts to share access to a single device. How does 2-factor auth affect that feature? Non-related: I know this kind of doublespeak is common in tech press releases, but this seemed particularly obvious: > Ring does not sell your personal information to anyone. In the same section, a couple paragraphs later: > You can now opt out of sharing your information with third-party service providers for the purpose of receiving personalized ads. So Amazon/Ring is just sharing personalized info to third-party advertisers for free?
