      FWIW, I've yet to meet someone—and I personally know some of world's top cryptographers—who did not screw up PGP email one time or another—or a lot. At the moment, the recommendation is Signal for everyone and Securedrop on reputable news ogrs for true whistleblowers. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯https://twitter.com/EFF/status/995906839958061056 …

      A new security vulnerability has been discovered in PGP (and GPG) that affects a range of email clients and plugins. To protect yourself, EFF highly recommends that for now you uninstall or disable your PGP email plug-in. #efail 1/4 https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/05/attention-pgp-users-new-vulnerabilities-require-you-take-action-now …

      Downside of Signal is having to give out phone number. To be honest, for me, that has been an upside in many contexts. But I understand that it is often a downside. Here's how to use Signal without giving out personal phone number:https://theintercept.com/2017/09/28/signal-tutorial-second-phone-number/ …

      Speaking of which, my iphone is stuck on reboot? Off-to-find an Apple store. (If you are trying to text or Signal me, try DM for the moment?) (PS. You can try emailing but I'm about a month behind on email?😬)

      HMM; also without a working phone I'd be locked out of a bunch of things that require phone for some sort of 2FA--whether duo or google authenticator or whatnot. 😬😬😬😬😬 I'm abroad atm so can't just get new phone and put in SIM probably. HMMMMMMMM. Wellllllll...

          But who holds the key for your backup? It may be annoying but it’s also a really hard problem to solve without undermining the security in the first place.

          Ugh! Backup 2FA for various services was one of the reasons I finally got a smartwatch, after phones were drained, corrupted or (briefly) lost. It was a timely investment. Good luck.

          You can use your smart watch for 2fa? Which model are you using?

          This is a huge danger of 2FA. I use it extensively at work, where it's easy to "prove" I am who I say I am and get a reset. Generic internet services? They can't possibly handle provability. Sorry your phone blew up :(

          Ah! Now that’s made me decide I need to figure out an “Access my data” disaster recovery protocol!

          Will be interested to read the lessons drawn from this. Not only does everyone need 2FA (passwords bad), they also need a 2FA disaster recovery plan (phones and u2f keys die/disappear). Good luck, Joe Public.
