Two-Factor Authentication, Do YOU Have It Enabled?

Use Linux. Mint Linux is easy to use. Windows is back doored by the "3 letter agencies."

So is linux: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/54in5s/the_nsa_has_tried_to_backdoor_linux_three_times/

This whole post seems cognitively dissonant.

It really doesn't makes much sense, so basically you say don't use Microsoft but yet are trusting all of your information to Google 2fa...? The company that tracks and sells your data every millisecond...k.

Then you say google Gmail sucks but it's perfectly logical to use another web-mail program without having much clue as to what source code it uses. This protonmail reminds me of the old hushmail.com email, which is speculated to be nothing more than a honeypot. Again, false sense of security here.

Ultimately, Google 2fa really doesn't do much but give people a false sense of security; 99% of the people that lose coins have been socially engineered to defraud them or are using centralized exchanges who steal them. The article you just linked to said some guy got his real-life account information and the fraudster called customer service to 'switch' out his phone....which really makes little sense how this caused him to lose coins since even the most basic web-wallet uses a password, which the fraudster wouldn't have had access to.

Also, People seem to be hyping 'Nano ledger' and these expensive $150 'hardware' wallets that pretty much run on a $10 usb drive one could easily create themselves. This also ultimately puts your hard-earned money in someones' closed source software.

Most of the crap out there for 'securing' bitcoin/litecoin is just happy feel good psuedo-security. If the NSA or a good hacker wanted to get around any of this they could. The only thing they couldn't reach is a cold wallet never plugged in (yes I get the ledger/trezor does this, but again you are ultimately trusting someone else's code).
