    In theory yes, but in practice no. Most companies have implemented them in the dumbest ways and have not used them to increase security. They can pretty much all be worked around with your phone number or email. It should also be a choice not trying to trick users into using it.

    Amazon can fuck right off with their prompt to save on every single login. Microsoft will still try to save passkeys even when you turn it off in windowsso you can use a password manager. They are just creating a fucking mess.

    Password + Passkey as 2fa would be nice.

    Because they spread all the most useful shit as far out as possible so that you have to walk through everything else to get to it. It drives sales unfortunately.

    If it’s not on the list I don’t buy it. If the store keeps shuffling shit all the time I’ll just buy less from there if possible.
