Someone is suing Apple for making 2FA too annoying, I only hope Google can be next for the significantly greater time being wasted on their stupid CAPTCHA. Why should any of us even care if someone accesses a website programmatically?
It's almost definitely not my problem, and it's not even necessarily a problem it's just a way to access pages, made easier by Google in fact because it's a perfectly legitimate way to navigate the internet and Google themselves depend on it. If anyone wants to discourage it just provide an official API to use instead of pages, which are a defacto API for humans.
Apple's 2FA cannot be disabled, beyond that if you ever had two devices connected to your account, good luck getting them to use your verified phone instead... I was trying to get rid of a "your apple account... please sign in" via the app store, and the advice was to sign out then back in again... my only other apple device was in another city...
Phone calls to GF, to get her to login, similar issue, it was now signed out, and after another attempt, one of them showed the 2FA window, which got me in. At no point was I able to use the phone number also associated with my account, and it was a huge, long, pain in the ass. It's actually a huge part of why I won't buy an iPhone.
