Actually OTP hardware devices are a proper solution to this, but banks are mostly deprecating them, unfortunately.

- 1oooqooq 2y agoand why do you think that is? *ponderingfaceemoji banks and gov sites say it's because of security, but accept SMS. so we know what it's really about
- xcdzvyn 2y agoI don't. Deliberately exposing people to risk for fun?
- bornfreddy 2y agoI think I do. It costs money and people in general don't appreciate it. Also while "malware on phone stealing money" is technically possible, it doesn't happen (much?), and most people get scammed in easier and more effective ways (see crypto) instead. I still hate it, but can't do much about it.
