Re: IBM requiring 2FA

I live in a stucco house with a steel roof. Once we got the steel roof
installed our cell reception when from 1 bar to zero.

I installed a cell repeater and all is good now.

But I do agree, all this 2FA is getting a little out of hand. Can't wait
for 3FA... (password, text and then you have to probably do something like
post a tik tok video with a specific phrase in it).

Yes, I just discovered that, and it's really annoying. I can see 2FA
for some things but geesh, a case? I think we (IBM) are starting to get
way overboard on what we are trying to protect, not being selective
enough. Now when I'm in a data center with lousy cell reception (most
of them nowadays) I cannot use the fast Internet connection that is
literally 2 ft from my laptop to get at a case? Yea, I know they have
some options but really. Let's get some sanity going.

I went in to look at my cases today and IBM is now requiring 2FA.
You may want to get this setup before you need it.
