GitHub is requiring 2FA for all accounts. I think this is a great move #Normalize2FA https://github.blog/2023-03-09-raising-the-bar-for-software-security-github-2fa-begins-march-13/

@micahflee With my #security hat on, I totally agree. With my #UX hat on, I'm sad that modern computing forces users to do arcane procedures. I think part of the problem here is due to how the internet has been structured: the services want all users to login so they can be tracked and sold to the highest bidder. #Jitsi is a great example of a better approach: work without logins, only use auth when needed, and allow users to handle auth on the fly as well as long-lived.
@micahflee Actually, I forgot to mention, GitHub does an OK job of it, given that public repos are fully readable without logging in, and it works pretty well over #Tor. But they also assume most users are logged in all the time. They could change their #UX so that it only uses logins when they are actually needed. I fear too many companies like #Microsoft are fully hooked on tracking users to even consider this.
