MFA: The Annoying Thing That Saves You

Lock down important accounts with a second factor, then stash recovery codes like a sensible legend.

Multi-factor authentication is mildly annoying in the same way a seatbelt is mildly annoying: worth it. Start with email, banking, cloud storage, and social media. Use an authenticator app or security key where possible.

Your takeaway is enabling MFA on at least one priority account and saving recovery codes somewhere private.
