A comment on Gmail 2FA causes the homeless to permanently lose access 3 times a year. Parent comment
I got "hacked", I mean yeah it was a hack using an Android phone and Google's automated recovery system.
If not for the latter, my incredibru strong password would've saved me.
They also removed the phone and backup email from that account because I recovered the account once.
I sure hope 2FA cannot be removed once someone gains access (not without a call to the 2FA number/whatever) lol.
Either way, I'm not using it because it's a pain in the ass. I already hate that they lock me out if I try to log in from another country.
Gee, yeah I travel between EU countries, that's very unusual for most people.
