Stop Trusting Google With Your Keys
Part 1 of the Sovereign Authentication series.
Watch the series here
Convenience is the enemy of sovereignty.
If you rely on SMS or cloud-synced apps like Google Authenticator, you are not securing your account. You are just handing your keys to a landlord.
I ran a poll and 38% of you are still trusting Big Tech with your 2FA. I'm done with that. I trust physics, not luck.
In this video, I break down the four tiers of authentication, explain why I deleted Google Authenticator, and start my review of the top hardware keys on the market.
