Just wondering what people are using to meet the 2FA requirement GitHub has been rolling out. I don’t love the idea of having an authenticator app installed on my phone just to log into GitHub. And really don’t want to give them my phone number just to log in.
Last year, we announced our commitment to require all developers who contribute code on GitHub.com to enable two-factor authentication (2FA)…
The two factors at an ATM are possession of your bank card + knowledge of your pin. (it also takes your photo, for good measure)
GitHub will happily accept a smart card or whatever, if an extra plastic rectangle jives with you more than an OTP generator.
Card is your username duh. Some people are beyond saving.
The card number is your username, a physical card is a separate factor.
