Sorry, but IIUC setting up 2FA requires a smartphone and I don't have one. Not only I never had a smartphone, but my dumb cellphone recently got its screen broken down so the only thing it is still good for is receiving voice communications. To read or send SMSes I need the screen, and so do I to see where an incoming phone call (which I couldn't immediately answer) or a message came from. I have a house phone (on a line); it uses tones, not strings of 1 to 10 impulses, and I think it can receive but not send SMS messages; also, for security against unscrupulous neighbours it is restricted to sending only domestic calls (within Belgium). (Incoming calls can come from anywhere.) _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
