[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 823865, post: 843314"] you miss the point, it is not about being able to decrypt your mails or not , it is about someone with enough infos can use this system to access your account. Protonmail isn't Gmail, you don't use encrypted services as you send basic email via Gmail to your buddies. I use 2FA knowingly that if i lose my device or codes, I'm done. My other providers don't allow me to reset my 2FA if i lose them. It is exactly why I use 2FA, so only me can access my account. If they allow anyone who usurped your identity (via credentials stealing for example) and get access, what is the point of 2FA? I use 2FA with my mobile because no one else has it. It is wrong, you don't see it because you don't see the big picture. They shouldn't even think about it, this is a blatant weakness and i smell some hidden agendas for doing it. [/QUOTE]
