same, issues with 2FA and not considered at all
Don't use your phone as a 2FA then?
Very surprised 2FA was not enabled... Super sucky.
Do you have / did you have 2FA enabled? And, if not, why not?
Phone numbers aren't 2FA and are susceptible for this reason.
you don't lose your 2fa. thats it. all other options are unsafe
Doesn't this eliminate the advantage of 2FA?
using 2 Factor Authentication comes handy in situations like this.
Some services require 2FA/MFA whether you personally want it or not.
Could use an app for 2fa tho right?
