      Would agree with this, and for security reasons you should avoid SMS anyhow. Similar: 1) Role email addresses at company domain not personally scoped ones on accounts 2) Get a mail forwarding address at least until you have consistent office spacehttps://twitter.com/tylertringas/status/1179750711799767040 …

      Some hard lessons learned: 1. Don't use your personal phone number of business stuff unless you want to eventually get it spammed into unusability 2. Use authenticator apps instead of SMS as 2-factor-auth for portability 🤦‍♂️ https://twitter.com/tylertringas/status/1179736112824295425 …

      (After years of using Earth Class Mail for every financial institution I can convince into taking it I’m hoping to never have them choose to mail a physical address again. Would *certainly* use again for business for the class of things that need an address not a location.)

      *Someone* is going to eventually come up with an addressing layer such that an institution can send a letter addressed to patio11 and have it physically arrive in my hands but until they do we get to scratchbuild our own at silly costs.

          Maybe some kind of weird crossing of Keybase and Amazon could work...

          ^ YES, I've been thinking about this for over a decade!! Something like OAuth where you authorize a retailer with your address. Maybe they pass that token to a shipper, who can then lookup your address. Boom, retailer never has knowledge of your address.

          Really wanted to build this when I was at Kickstarter, because N project creators have my physical address now because they needed it to ship me something.
