123456789A Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I wouldn't worry about it so much. They're not going out of business and if there was an attack, they have redundancy for that sort of thing. Obi-Wan Kenobi 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beyond Godlike Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I wouldn't worry about it so much. They're not going out of business and if there was an attack, they have redundancy for that sort of thing. It's the same for android too I bet. I activated 2-factor again recently after switching devices and it completely cuts off a device from google services while you re-login. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
