Ask HN: If I get locked out of everything, please try to help me
This is my nightmare. This is why I refuse to use 2FA. (Except on services that require it, and I wish they didn't require it.)Am I worried about getting hacked? Absolutely! But when I weigh the likelihood of (1) someone else getting into my account without 2FA and (2) locking myself out of my own account with 2FA, the latter seems much more likely!I understand how backup codes work. I promise you I will loose them.
