    People keep acting like Authy is betraying them by not having an export feature, but why exactly are you leaving Authy to begin with? Because they are a security risk?

    You’re gonna leave Authy a copy of your seeds? That defeats the purpose.

    Re-key your MFA codes on the way out. Security isn’t necessarily convenient.

        I can’t even begin to stress what a terrible idea that is. You absolutely don’t want to make bulk-rekeying possible unless you like getting all of your accounts compromised at once.
