Isn't interesting how Google, Comcast and etc, have all had IT Sec issues and now want you to use your Cell phone for a 2-step verification process.

A process that would have you giving them your #, and quiet access to all the other trackable info that goes with it. Likely having like your GPS location 24/7, what stores you shop, places you frequent, bars, political venues and more.

#2 Still no Email warning from COMCAST/XFINITY on this issue as on this as of 0720 hrs.

I got the inkling when after 20 years they suddenly wanted me to change my passwords. Followed up several days later by a notification from Aura.
