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.
Original message:
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!
