So many services still don't even offer 2FA at all. Any service that stores payment information and PII without any 2FA options, let alone a secure one, at this point are a disgrace.

10 years ago, the Feds wanted backdoors to all of phones so they could read all of our text messages. Now, the Feds want everyone not to use software that has backdoors so the Chinese cannot read our phones. The Feds don't want competition.
Oh man it sure would be nice if the feds had the power to regulate something like this /s
They did. That's the reason for this hack, they wanted Lawful Interception, they got their backdoor. It's what professionals and privacy advocates said all along, if it exists it will be abused.
Do you have a source for this claim? I’d like to repeat it elsewhere…
I.e. this article from October: https://www.techradar.com/pro/chinese-hackers-allegedly-hit-us-wiretap-systems-to-hit-broadband-networks
In an all too predictable turn of events, Salt Typhoon, an infamous Chinese state actor, has reportedly hijacked government systems to breach several American broadband providers and gain access to the interception portals required by US law.
Thanks for bringing receipts. In stark contrast to my experience on Reddit, Lemmings usually seem allergic to showing their work for some reason.
Yeah, I don't get it. I go out of my way to provide sources even before being asked.
What's really frustrating is when others users criticize me for providing evidence that could be used to counter my claim. I'm not trying to win arguments, I'm trying to show my work so others can correct me if I missed something. I'm here to learn and educate, in that order, yet so many only seem interested in engaging in discussion that jives w/ their existing opinions. That was a problem on Reddit too, but at least someone would chime in w/ sources much of the time.
@capital @sugar_in_your_tea I'm entering a conversation without reading the other posts, so I apologise. I just want to say that I deeply admire your approach. It is mine as well. I will begin a discussion with a view that I hold, but if someone is able to prove me wrong, I will admit it and thank him. And if my sources should be used to prove his point, then either I didn't read well enough or it's simply a line of thought that I hadn't considered. But I love civil discussions without wasting time on personal attacks and whatnot, and it seems you're the same way.
