I sometimes see memes about "don't do these 'get to know me' memes because you'll expose your passwords or security question answers".

Honestly, we already do a lot of that in the course of filling out social media platforms and using those platforms? If you're on LinkedIn or Facebook for example, your mother's maiden name is probably in your profile, along with the college you graduated from.

The real lesson is "stop doing security questions truthfully" and "stop having passwords based on things about you and your friends". SQs are a far more common backdoor to take control of someone else's account. Treat "security" answers as additional passwords.

I mean.. these features should be offered by default, free of charge. It's not a good look for any company to start monetazing user security😒

"If non-subscriber accounts that use SMS authentication do not switch before the deadline, Twitter said it would disable two-factor authentication for that account.

The move has sparked concerns that it could lead to widespread hacks on accounts next month if they fail to switch over." 🤯 #2fa #twitter #meta #facebook #instagram #usersecurity #security #informationsecurity
