People get hacked -- a device could be flawless, but if a person is a victim of "Social Engineering" and hands the attacker a password, there's nothing the designer of the device could do about it. | ||||||||

2FA has tried to solve exactly this. Not many attacked people will hand over their password AND their phone. Yes I know, they might hand over one authentication code (and I know people who did exactly that)... We should also look into reducing the attack surface - if you get Instagram hacked you shouldn't get your Facebook hacked as well. But the current big tech centralization leads us to that single point of failure, because they don't care about the user's concerns only market grab. So... what now? Do we get the politics into this? | ||||||||
