Well, nobody's forced it, but my company publishes content on TikTok that drives customers, and I want to be able to see it myself. You'd be surprised how many CISOs and security workers are on TikTok.
What kind of 2FA? I run OTP on my work laptop. Yes, it's maybe not really a 2nd factor if someone had access to my laptop with LUKS open. But at least I don't expect any automated attack because it's my own piece of code using an otp library.
I'm sorry but what? Your job demands what apps you have installed on your PRIVATE phone!?
