    I think for email it’s essential, it’s critical that someone doesn’t make it into your email. Otherwise they can reset all your other passwords.

    I have mfa on my account but I just click a checkbox after first time to not ask again. I’m still protected by it and don’t have to do anything until I clear my cookies (which I don’t for email).
