Got a 2FA prompt for my Google account which said something like: 'Tap the confirm button on your phone to verify it's you'. Just dawned on me I switched to a dumbphone about 5 years ago for privacy reasons and binned my smartphone. So no more Google account for me.
It makes me wonder how many people are going to be locked out of their accounts because of these changes. So many people looking for a human. Sadly Google support is famously terrible, and 99% of queries are just Google replying back saying: 'RTFM' or 'Please refer to the FAQ for support'.
