Too late, I think.
Facebook has scared off a lot of the "moms" out there by their bad bad bad privacy history. Do you really want to pay for things using their service?
- Kiro 14y agoI'm pretty sure my mom has no issues with Facebook's privacy history.
- bmuon 14y agoMy mom is a lot more worried about seeing pictures of relatives she doesn't like than about privacy.
- slig 14y agoMaybe the subset of moms that frequents reddit and HN.
- roc 14y agoWhile I tend to agree, they could throw in an RSA fob or a smartphone-based two-factor equivalent. They probably should already.

- Splines 14y agoI like two-factor authentication too, but casual users don't care about this sort of thing until it's too late.
- roc 14y agoThere's a large and growing number of casual users who've dealt with or watched a friend or family member deal with fraudulent charges. I think a sufficiently streamlined phone app and pitch could net quite a few. Say, demonstrating the feature by showing someone making an Amazon purchase and then getting a phone notification to approve the charge and approving with a simple PIN entry.[1] [1] Said notification ideally showing merchant, amount, scan location, warnings if it's a card not present transaction, etc.
