Come on, guys, this is dumb. For one thing, two factor authentication is nice, but a giant pain. Why don’t I get a choice what risks I choose to take. Rather, you should spend your resources making a a better website, so that when I changed employers I didn’t have to create another User id because your systems couldn’t handle it. Or, perhaps, you might allow me to pick the longer passwords that are easily facilitated by LASTPASS. Some folks are further along the curve than you are. Oh, btw, the CHOMEBOOK and CHROME browser I use don’t remember cookies between restarts. So your new method ALWAYS makes it a “new computer”. But I don’t have worry about malware. I’d be amused if anyone responds to this.

Don’t you just love when they send from “unattended email” or “outbound only”?
Just call, hang on line, and we’ll maybe get around to you with a slew of dumb questions.
And, oh by the way, we’re so big, you can just go somewhere else. (Like I have any choice about who my employer does business with!)
This is why “health”, “health care”, “health care insurance”, or something else should have NEVER been connected to employment.
Imagine if I changed jobs and lost my car insurance. My home insurance. My life insurance.
Crony capitalism at it best!
