Didn't you hear? Free market's out of style. Goverment mandates and bloated legislation are the new norm.

Changing banks is not free market just like Changing Insurance Companies. Most banks in US enforce SMS 2FA. I would rather want the choice of not doing SMS 2FA. If you cannot implement better 2FA, dont force me to use SMS 2FA and I assume the risk on my end. That's Free Market.
