That I don’t know. I store the TOTP keys into an app on my phone an into a separated KeePass DB that’s different from my regular one. Two copies of that is good enough to let me sleep at night.

Wealthsimple and Questrade seem to support TOTP but I’m not sure if you can still bypass it with SMS. I don’t think so but I haven’t dug into it.

Questrade allows TOTP, SMS and some other methods, but you can select which ones you want to enable. I have only TOTP and it works as expected.

You can generate a code grid and remove SMS altogether.

I wish I had known about Power Delete Suite. I nuked my posts / comments by hand :-(

In case it’s useful to more people: https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite

But surely someone must think of the children!

I trust there won’t be a hack and all that will get leaked.

Yes, these things are never dead. They just come back under a different name / pretensions until they pass.

I created my account in Spain around 2009, moved to Canada in 2014 and came back to Spain late last year. Never had a problem with this :-?

I created an account a few months ago but I’ve barely used it. DDG provides pretty much everything I search for. This might be because I don’t typically do very “esoteric” searches, but for now I don’t see the need for a paid service. Most of the times, tweaking the query so that it looks for a specific source is good enough.

I’d love if DDG had a system to remove entire domains entirely from the results, though.

Came here to post a similar comment zedeus made in another thread:

Nitter is dead.

I still checked some Twitter accounts from people that were interesting to me and didn’t migrate to Mastodon. One less thing to worry about, I guess.

Where’s that? I just ran a test search but I can’t see it :-?

Yes, I’m aware those filters exist, but I’m asking about the practical implications of the set up I mentioned in the post.

Damn. I knew this was a huge problem in Europe, but I didn’t know this happened in Canada too.

Here’s the Wikipedia article on this type of fraud: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_trader_fraud

Honestly, no idea. I just froze mine and haven’t requested anything since. I guess the worst that will happen is that your request will get rejected because your credit is frozen and you’ll have to unfreeze it (you can do that only for N days / weeks, so you don’t have to re-freeze) and request your CC again.

Plus an account in a potential social.cbc.ca domain has the advantage that you know automatically that it’s a legit CBC account.

Plus, free RSS!

(For the five of us that still care about that, anyway.)

The prices and the entire fucking country.

I’m originally from Spain. I know very well these messages from our bubble (which exploded --sort of-- around 2007 - 2008). “House prices can only go up because X”.

Then, for whatever reason, Y happens, and it turns out that Y >> X.

I know how this ends, and it’s not pretty.

archive.is / archive.ph (both domains work) is typically very good for this. https://archive.ph/qbym4
