Luddites like me who have disabled text messages on their phones.


Well your options would eventually be:
- enable txt msgs
- carry a yubikey with you everywhere

As long as I get a non-text msg version I am fine. To your original question... things to consider:

1) Cost of sending SMS.
2) How to prove that bkearney@xxxxxxx == 555-1212


1. acknowledged - but we know there is a cost to the hardware keys, too.

2. you prove that they are related the same way that I prove that when we
issue a hw key to skvidal@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx that it goes to ME.
