I always wonder what would happen to most people if there was a house fire and all their phones and laptops burned at once.
It’s not clear what the best security plan for that is (safety deposit box or fireproof safe seem like the best options).

- eloisius 3y agoNo, but most SMS-based 2fa is linked to my voip number, which then requires 2fa stored in a password manager.
