Hands up who reuses the same password everywhere, even with your Nest. Keep your hand up if you like being spied on by hackers

2FA via SMS? Srsly?

I don't password share and I knew it was inevitable that I'd have to switch 2FA on at some time, but I was mightily disappointed that Nest only allow a code via SMS. No one-time password option like Google offers?! Hopefully the crims will not try and get my phone SIM reset...

I like (not love) Nest when it works, but they seemed to have seriously lost the plot when it comes to security.
