Eww y’all have a code word? Those are easily guessable.

My wife and I have a random 6 digit code that rotates every 30-seconds based on an algorithm and if we don’t properly authorize, we will refuse the connection.

Eww you have a random rotating 6 digit code to connect with your wife? Those are easily guessable.

My wife and I have just agreed that we don’t properly authorize, so we will always refuse the connection.

I mean its not even 2FA exactly. It’s more like TOTP which 2FA might use, granted.

My family gaslit me for decades.

I can only hope someone bothers to harass them with my own voice.
