These are very intriguing thoughtful questions. In a world in which we have grown accustomed and comfortable with the speed of instant communications, I've found myself being stopped by the very security set into place in order to prevent invasions into my life, & personal accounts.
I agree, all of our extra layers of security are necessary in order to keep our identities, bank accounts, and MalwareTips members, free from falling victim to theft/or mayhem should our personal spaces (either business or recreational) be breached.
Prior to posting, here, Spawn's words prompted me to revisit an annoyance, & difficulty, I'd run into when I'd tried to log onto my little used Facebook account. Months ago, & from my Smart Phone, I was neither able to access my Facebook account, nor recall my password.
After numerous attempts (3 or possibly 4) I was promptly locked out.
I
was given the option to ask (3) Facebook Friends for help, but only two responded. Darn.
Well,
I'd thought to myself,
I don't do anything on facebook other than entering our giveaways plus most of the time I've been using Twitter for that.
Still, this bothered me. Even if I don't really use Facebook often, my account would still be standing around like an abandoned tool shed, no longer used, and forgotten, but not by 'me'.
So, just now, I popped over to Facebook, but even with LastPass, here, on Firefox, I was still faced with
1.) Ask 3 friends for help to log in. ...or wonderfully (and to my surprise) 2.) Log in with your Goggle Account.
Now, I have my Facebook account back.
I'd then decided to go into the LastPass vault, and learned the password assigned was actually a jumble of numbers, letters, and characters, generated, and then saved by LastPass (something I'd forgotten which was done a long time ago).
I see that identity, and anonymity, have their places, and as our usernames here, can be fun & creative while further keeping us secure even when we are very visible!
PS I use uBlock too!
