RE: Account Security: Ditch Text Messaging 2FA and Switch To Google Authenticator 2FA

in #security9 years ago

Upvoted.

I am still learning a lot about things like this and with where things are headed. I know for a fact, I don't trust Google and companies like it that have been exposed as causing harm to humanity, but look in the daily narratives like they care.

They don't.

Let's ask Edward Snowden how he feels about them again.

Sort:  

I learned about the IMSA scanners yesterday, the ones that intercept all cell phone transmissions. Pretty freaking scary.

It is a proven fact in Canada - they are using #Stingray technology to intercept transmissions and spy on regular people.

#PoliceState

As much as I hate the Google -- here is absolute proof of the fact in #Canadastan --- and I have had personal/activist dealings with SEVERAL of the agencies named on this search proving same. Including the #CCLA - the Canadian Civil Liberties Association who was involved when I was politically banned from my own city hall for calling out lies and Corruption and secret meetings and naming names and file names/numbers.

My public policy work as a whistleblower and activist for the people is documented online also, so I am not just a keyboard warrior LOL.

But the encrypted email providers like Tutanota don't have 2FA, right?

I looked briefly at Protonmail this week like you mentioned and TBH invested several hours and pages of notes last year looking into encrypted providers like you mentioned today, the top ones, maybe a dozen of them.

I have not invested much time in it since. Frankly I have a lot of distrust in a lot of the corporate structure and tech today and like you -- with good reason sister.

well, Tutanota and Protonmail are known encrypted email providers. Tutanota is based in Germany and Protonmail I think is in Sweden. Using encrypted email makes a lot of sense actually. I've tried both, and they are pretty good.
