    my favorite instance of google MFA was when i went to log into my google account for some reason. Google hit me with the MFA, cool whatever, i’ll MFA, google does the usual “heres how we do it because we give you no options because fuck you” and im like, cool, ok just gotta wait for this to work.

    And then it proceeds to not work, at all. Thanks google, very cool. Fortunately, i had a secondary auth app setup so i used that, and it worked, weird how that works huh? BTW, it wasn’t sms, it’s googles integrated android MFA service, which as far as i can tell, is literally a fucking requirement to using MFA.

    Also, i remembered again, that logging into my google account, automatically logs me into every google account i have. Yknow, because security. Anybody know how to disable that one btw? Google seems to be an endless labyrinth of options everytime i try and do something with it so.
