The Authenticator App Problem

My authenticator app is overflowing with sites – everyone wants a code for me to log in with now.

Do they need the code?

I don’t know.

But now that one does it, they all do it.

I am using different codes for different apps.

We’re not solving the problem of authentication; we’re simply duplicating it across every piece of infrastructure we now touch.
