Re: 2FA on emails

Given that he apparently said that because "nearly everyone's email addresses are available on the dark web" I'm not entirely sure he himself knows what it means. If nearly everyone's email log-ins were available, that would be a different matter. (Though he may be right for anyone that uses ABCD1234 (etc) as their password).

However, that's based purely on El Reg's reporting; there's no link to a transcript of the speech. A quick search suggests the Parliament and Internet Conference referred to is taking place today - so it's probably something he said today, with no transcript available online yet.
