I wonder if this will cause a reduction in remote jobs for citizens. Compliance with US laws like HIPAA and FERPA have strict requirements regarding access. Many employees use 2FA on their personal devices, which if passed this law would interfere with.




How would this interfere with 2FA?

Depends on what permission this app have.

- Is this a (voice) call blocker?

- Can it intercept SMS?

- Can it enumerate installed app and read data from other apps?


Or, maybe it'll finally convince people that SMS is the worst of all worlds when it comes to security (and phone numbers for identity). Doubt it tho
