Another kind of problem would be when someone pledges a big sum for an obscure feature, a first-time contributor writes a (technically perfect) PR for it. Maintainer does not want to merge it, because the feature does not align with maintai

My worry is in the future there may sometimes be no other option than to take this "advantage". If a site implements the new auth standard, will it also keep the current username/password/2fa as an alternative option?

I take the argument that enabling 2FA increases the risk of getting locked out of the account with no recourse. But I doubt that many people with good password discipline will revert to bad password discipline after enabling 2FA (the Charli

You did describe them as "dodgy" though. Not proactively updating expired cards is dodgy. Supplying an unmonitored email address as a contact address is dodgy. Cutting service after non-payment, email warnings, and grace period is

But do they store individual IP+UA hashes, or do they mush them together in a bloom filter or a HyperLogLog data structure? In the first case, it could be argued they still store personally identifiable information (for a limited time, but
