Okta is closing our account because we're Colombian
Okta decided they would no longer sell to customers in Colombia and Venezuela. They think both economies are the same just because we're geographically next to each other. While Venezuela has an 'authoritarian-based' economy, Colombia has had very healthy and close economic and diplomatic ties with the US, for decades now.

Ask HN: Anyone else annoyed by Zoom's new “Passcode or Waiting Room” policy?

My guess is that two-factor auth only gives the app some sort of one-time use token which 'expires' or stops working when I open the app again. I wouldn't like to turn off the two-factor auth, as I consider it an important security feature for my GMail account. I've...
