Apple was actually doing their job here, what if that wasn't the real person, but a hacker instead? If you're going to use that kind of security, you need to understand the responsibility that goes with it. Again, personally I think using 2 step security and file vault is overkill, but if you choose to use it and then you don't keep track of your key, you have no one to blame but yourself.

I do agree with this, Merv. The lady in th article does make some valid points but to me, she sounded a little whiny. Now I know it is frustrating but if you know there is 2 step verification and you use it, keep your stuff in multiple safe locations. Congratulations on having the only Dad return from the dead smile.

Hi,
I have to agree with you about two factor authentication and being responsible for your own security. About ten years ago my dad died and about a week later I saw him log into his Instant Messenger. Of course I knew it was a relative at the house snooping through his personal files so I wrote and asked him how he came back from the dead. It totally freaked my sister out trying to figure out how I knew she was in the house and on his computer. However, I having been his tech knew that he kept all his passwords on top of his monitor in a notebook labeled computer Passwords including the ones to his bank accounts, laughs!
