We still don't have 2FA. It's required for safe logins. Threats are real. Any community manager comment on this please?

This exact reason is why I am not committing as much time to this server as I would like to. Need the added layer of security first.

Adding 2FA to a WoW client is not going to be something easy or that they would commit to. Would require you to download a modded version of the client. For a website security to your account, much easier. So adding 2FA to your website accounts could and should easily be done.

2FA was available before lights hope detached from elysium. But maybe the remaining devs don't know how to implement it now. I can't see another reason.

I can't imagine how it can hope with Warcraft Client, unless they completely redone the launcher and you had to download a custom launcher in order for it to work (launcher or wow.exe)

The 1.12.1 Wow client does in fact support 2FA. It's the back-end changes here that aren't ready. 2FA will be enabled at some point.

Really? So 2FA was available for Blizzard to deploy back in 2005-2007?

Correct, the client has support for pin entry built into it.
