Nope, because I was grandfathered into it when Google switched it on for everyone without saying anything. You can still access gmail and such; you just can't set up any more devices without having some kind of 2fa.
Now I have a hardware key. I wouldn't dare keep rescue key codes (which can't be revoked) in my wallet.
- nh2 2y agoCan't you just use them to revoke them?
- nine_k 2y agoYou can't revoke them if the paper is in the wrong hands, and you don't have a normal access to your account. (Well, they are much like a password in this regard.) It's just different risk profiles. Your biggest risk might be to drop your phone and lose all the 2FAs in a Google Auth app. Or your biggest risk might be losing your wallet to a thief or robber who is going to hijack your accounts.
- bootlooped 2y agoI think the chances of the kind of person who steals your wallet also being able to leverage pilfered two-factor authentication codes to hijack your accounts is almost zero.
