Just out of curiosity, suppose you are not on-call for work and it is an observed holiday. Do you foresee the need for two factor authentication for non-work activities?
In other words, is 2fa a requirement for daily life?
- eCa 1y agoOne example would be Github for personal projects. There are several other use cases where the phone is a factor for logging into services.

So in general if I need to do anything with any accounts, I need 2fa access. And for the phone apps I do stay logged in to, well, they are on my phone.

- ecb_penguin 1y agoThere's no need to overcomplicate a silly exercise with rigid rules. Focus on the intent of the exercise. If you really mentally cannot get past 2FA, then get a hardware token, or a TOTP client on your desktop. Lots of solutions if this is really the hangup.
