    No, I think.

    As I understand it, it’s a separate system, kind of like the TOTP 2FA, for comparison, but in this case it would be an additional system, and where normally anyone can use any provider for TOTP, this one is Google only. If websites implement this, and many likely will, you can only use those sites if you have a Google permitted phone that leeches all your private data 24/7

    Isn’t the future awesome?

          More like a class action EMP attack on data centers. But who knows, maybe the AIs will be the energy shift this world needs to get us out of this mess. They can’t code regression corrections to force them into their desired bias ad infinitum. At some point these bots will outsmart it and get good enough to manipulate everything into optimization. Our luck might depend on what their definition of optimized is.

          And now I realize how desperate our position is that bots might be our only hope.
