Worst case, you may need to physically visit some bank or government branch, send some registered letters and/or notarize some statements, but there's always a way to recover from losing your ID, passport, or access to a bank account. Until similar process exist in digital space (read: is legally and culturally forced on SaaS vendors), 2FA is frankly dangerous - it demands standards of diligence and long-term care that not even government affairs do. The back-up codes users are instructed to print out and store securely? No other document in most people's lives requires such long-term protection. |

I leave my iPad and my Laptop at home usually, unless I am staying within my state visiting family and even then, I'm pretty sure my iCloud backup will still work on a brand new iPhone, heck I know it will, since it pushed everything to my newer iPhone even things I don't sync were in the encrypted backup of the whole device. |
