This is because apps want to ping to your phone and gather data on your location and then sell that data off to make more profit. And why many are demanding this use. Do not be naive. Push back. Also it means that ifg you lose your phone you lose your access to all your banking, soundcloud etc. So it is a terrible idea. We must push back against this. Demand they remove it and that it is a opt in only option. To force this on consumers is absolutely unethical . I travel a lot and 2FA is the bane of my existence and having to install and remove mutliple sim cards to get into accounts and pay bills. It is a *****ing mess. I have never had any cyber threat and until i do, i do not require any further applications forced onto me under the guise of "safety and security" as soon as i hear those terms, i know something dark is going on.
