Debt Collectors Refuse Written Communication to Evade FDCPA Obligations

Manual TOTP Code Entry Creates Repeated Friction Across Multi-Environment Workflows

Developers and power users working across multiple systems hit 2FA prompts dozens of times per day, requiring them to grab a phone, read a time-sensitive 6-digit code, and type it manually before it expires. Existing TOTP tools require manual entry of base32 secrets during setup, creating a setup barrier that blocks non-technical users. The cumulative time cost and context-switching overhead of manual 2FA at scale is a significant productivity drain.
