New account security feature now available!

Good update, although lets hope it will still be possible to opt out. For people with multiple devices and VPNs

I agree completely. I do think anyone should be able to opt out if they want to. It's great for those who want and need it, but some do not need or want the feature. So, it should just stay as it is now where those who want it can enable it and those who don't want it don't have to change anything.

Asked this at the beginning of November and would appreciate a reply!

This feature is currently opt-in, but our goal is to gradually enable it for all CS accounts.

Once it's been enabled, could you then opt-out? (so that basically it turns from an opt-in to an opt-out feature) or would it become mandatory?

Thank you so much!

Great idea! Are there any immediate plans to add support for external 2FA applications like Google Authenticator, Authy, or Microsoft Authenticator for extra security?

Aye! A lovely feature indeed. Keeping all of us chaotic beings safe from the interweb.
