How would you reset your password on your Google account Parfe?

How do you think the average person resets their password? I'm not talking about 2-factor auth as it applies to someone who keeps a PGP encrypted file on their machine I'm talking about it as it applies to the type of person who complains they can't log into Facebook through this page:

I'll guarantee they don't have a firewalled second account.

Next time you ask a question don't act like the answer doesn't count just because it doesn't fit your stupid narrative. If you wanted to talk about how you think average people are too stupid to use 2-factor auth then just say it.

Your post is buried and won't harm others. Move on.

A reset link that gets sent to a secondary account that my phone doesn't have access to with a unique password stored in a PGP encrypted file with a nice long passphrase only known to me.

My security question has a gibberish answer.

Not rocket science.
