UBS bank mandates their "Secure Access" app as second factor even when logging in from a desktop. They used to allow the smart card reader for existing customers that had it as a work around for a few years but they disabled that.
Also many websites are making it remarkably hard to not use the app if they even remotely sense you're not on an actual PC. FB and LinkedIn aren't banks but prime examples.

- marssaxman 1y agoGood reason to stop using that bank. I like my credit union.
- drnick1 1y agoThen don't be a sheep and don't use Facebook or LinkedIn. They are notorious mass surveillance networks.
