Idk I mean there’s a real trade off to making the app more secure. The causes of insecurity are largely user behavior, and the insecure things are things users want to do for practical reasons.
For example, I have a foolproof way of preventing sim swap attacks: require 256bits of entropy and never allow a password reset, like in crypto. Lose your password? Account is gone forever.
This is more secure but less user friendly. Except for large accounts, I don’t know that anyone even particularly cares if their Twitter gets hacked. You could pretty easily make the argument that preventing sim swap attacks is an optimization for high profile users at the expense of everyone else.
