The number of people that would break when they couldn't access their email when they opened their phone... You could measure it with public health statistics.
It occasionally happens with elderly.
Almost all use the default mail app on iPhone. They have sbc global era addresses. It'll occasionally ask to reauthenticate. Think it's happened at least 30 times in 2 years.
It's a crisis everytime lol
"What's your password?" "I don't use passwords." MFW 😐
I would go with android auto, or Google maps. Nothing like having to log back into your sat back system, every 15 minutes, while driving.
The number of car crashes it would cause would bring a lot of countries to their knees for a while.
To see the chaos, definitely some place like yt. Imagine you are watching an hour long video essay about something you love but you have to keep interacting with the website/app in some way that disrupts the video every 5 or so minutes or else you get locked out and require 2FA every time.
I imagine after a long enough time, the lazy people would just quit going and using their service all together. I know I would.
My bank locks me out after <5min of inactivity.
Lol! Let me at least configure the timeout instead of just kicking me out from some of the many labyrinths you required me to get into. >:(
My bank app does the same and will most likely log me out if I end up switching to a different app. I don't mind because I'd rather have that happen than have a stranger come up, steal my phone while unlocked, and be able to access my bank details (no matter how unlikely that scenario is).
Twitter... wait no that would actually a good thing to force people to step back even only for a few seconds
Alarm clock
Whatever application code is running on pacemakers.
Not now but soon: lemmy.
Make the logout random. This creates addiction which will turn lemmy into mindcrack.
If I restarted my 2FA proxy it forgets what authenticated and thus redirects you.
If you are done with some testing and want to get back to using something normal again, it get's quite annoying.
Best way to annoy me: Require (re-)authentication for services that should clearly be connected by a SSO (e.g. office.com and microsoft/live.com)
Maybe some stock brokers or whatever application they use to day trade
This question reminds me of The Every by Dave Eggers.
