My partner Steven and I live on a farm in Golden Lake, ON with our two kids. We grow much of our food and many many herbs. We run a 2 year program to teach earth skills of foraging, herbalism, gardening with an animistic context.

Click the following links, one by one, and follow the instructions to enable 2-factor authentication on these important websites (assuming you use those websites regularly)...  Google FB Instagram LinkedIn Paypal Stripe (scroll down to Two-step authentication) Any other payment methods you use


AE

@George Kao - the instructions for PayPal no longer work and I can't find anything through PayPal. any chance you have some kind of extra info on that? It doesn't even have a link for 2-SA and their help box doesn't recognize it either.

@Angie Evans I'm seeing it under Profile Settings > Login and security > 2-step verification.  See if that helps?

@George Kao I have 2 factor set up for everything but Paypal, I'm realizing, so thank you for speaking to this! Looks like Paypal gives limited options and I'm needing to set up through the  google authenticator app. A bit nervous about what might happen if I lose my phone, do you have any suggestions on ways to set things up in case I lose my phone?

@megan spencer you're right that you'd have to really trust not to lose your phone by using a mobile app like Google Authenticator.  Less secure but still better than no 2FA is to use SMS or email based authentication... usually an option that they give you. 

Alternatively you would need to use a service like https://authy.com/features/...

...which allows you to have authentication via multiple devices.
