Interesting, I didn't know that. So how do they derive the digits?

Do you think the SMS codes are not time-based on the companies' ends? How are they deriving the digits, then?

"Time-based One-Time Password" literally says nothing about the delivery method. Who said it can't involve remote sending?

And what would you call it, then, SOTP?

Anyway, regardless of the terminology-nitpicking, my point still stands.

I don’t love the idea of having an authenticator app installed on my phone

For anything? Why not? Surely you don't believe SMS-based TOTP is safer, right?

It just keeps getting better and better. As far as I know, it pioneered quoting parts of messages inside replies; I wonder how many other chat apps will catch on and mimic it.

Why is the NYT accessing the camera

Didn't happen to me on Waterfox...

Zelle is the closest acceptable alternative to PayPal, Venmo, and Cash App.

Wait, kbin.social is permanently dead?

Sorry, just saw this, and just checked; wow, it's gone from Firefox's add-ons! Strange... the original link was this, but it's broken now.

web storage

Google Drive?

It's strange that it doesn't have Waterfox. Anyway, that wasn't my point in the first place; first, Mozilla has to release its bug fixes, and then all these other browsers' devs have to release their own counterparts in response. It is during this window in time when they're most insecure, since the issues are then brought to light while users are helplessly waiting.
