Tell HN: GitHub forcing 2FA on users has no basis in their ToS
Recently I received an email from GitHub telling me i need to enable 2FA because i'm a somewhat active (hobbyist!) developer...
But the ToS very clearly states:
"You are responsible for keeping your Account secure while you use our Service. We offer tools such as two-factor authentication to help you maintain your Account's security, but the content of your Account and its security are up to you."
I think it is cute when corporations don't even bother to conform to their ToS themselves. This one is even almost readable.
Anyway, i just thought you'd like to know. Have a nice day!
