Guys, our meme page got hacked :scream:. I thought it was a joke 'til I saw someone selling herbal tea to my 10k followers LOL. Real-life lesson: 2FA is your bestie. Trust. :locked:

Yo, memelord24, why didn’t you have 2FA active though? It’s legit the minimum these days. Also, who knew hackers were into herbal tea? :joy:

Seriously tho, herbs aside, 2FA should be a thing like brushing your teeth. But what’s the next step if they bypass that somehow? :thinking:

2FA can be bypassed but it’s rare, usually involves phishing. Just make sure your 2FA app ain’t SMS-based. Get something like Authy or Google Authenticator. :flexed_biceps:

Fun fact: My granddad’s FB got hacked by some NFT dudes. He didn’t even know what NFTs were. SAME energy. :joy:

Phishing’s getting wild, tho. One minute you’re clicking a cute cat link, next you’re signing over your account to Paul the Hacker. :cat_face::right_arrow::man_technologist:

The real question: how many ppl actually use 2FA? Or is it just us cyber nerds? :globe_with_meridians:

I just started using it after my bank account got hit. 'Cuz of a dumb password I used since middle school :sweat_smile:. Now I’m the 2FA king. :crown:

Where do I sign up for this 2FA goodness? My email’s been hacked more times than I care to admit. :smiling_face_with_tear:

For real, guys. 2FA’s the safety net your WiFi password wishes it was. Install an app, click log in, confirm, done. :locked_with_key::sparkles:

But like, what if I forget my phone or it dies? No 2FA for me? Anyone using backup codes? :mobile_phone::skull:

Backup codes are a lifesaver! Just print them out or save them in a secure cloud. Don’t screenshot and leave them in your gallery tho. :joy::key:

crypto_kid

My crypto wallet’s 2FA all day. Ain’t nobody touching my dogecoins! :dog::rocket:

Honestly, gaming accounts need 2FA too. Lost my skins in Fortnite once, never again. :joystick::face_with_steam_from_nose:

PSA: If you’re not 2FA-ing, you’re not living! Or your online life’s in danger. :sparkles::skull:

I feel this. Watching this unfold is like a chaotic cybersecurity class. Keep the tips coming, fam. :eyes:

popcultured

So… thoughts on biometric 2FA? Face ID or fingerprints over everything else? :thinking:

zillennial

IDK. Biometric feels safer but also like, what if tech turns against us? I’ve watched too much Black Mirror. :eye:

realist_hacker

Biometric is nice but not foolproof. Hackers gonna hack, but layers of security will for sure make it harder. Like onions, be layered. :onion::sweat_smile:

Loving the tips & hacks vibe here. Keep it real, keep it secure. And remember, 2FA isn’t just trendy, it’s necessary. :speech_balloon::sparkles:
