Did Evernote remove all references to 2fa from forums after they got hacked?
- tempestn 14y agoHmm.. As a site owner I try not to jump to conspiracy conclusions, as I've certainly been on the receiving end of enough of them due to random coincidences and such. That said, this does indeed seem odd. Did you try posting a question in their forums about it?
- mainevent 14y agoMe also but have regularly checked their 2fa threads because it's a feature I'm interested in so was surprised to see them gone so soon after the hack. As you say, could be unrelated. Haven't posted a question no.
- jgrahamc 14y agoIt's unclear. Some of the search results don't work, but this one does: http://discussion.evernote.com/topic/20932-two-factor-authentication/ http://discussion.evernote.com/topic/20932-two-factor-authen...
- aidos 14y agoIt's weird though, no? The majority have definitely been removed.
- jgrahamc 14y agoYes, it's definitely odd. A search for "two factor site:evernote.com" (http://www.google.com/search?q=two+factor+site:evernote.com http://www.google.com/search?q=two+factor+site:evernote.com) shows that most do seem to be unavailable.
- jasonlotito 14y agoThe first one that seemed removed was actually moved to a thread talking about 2fa. It seems it's more a matter of consolidating multiple threads on the same topic into a single thread. Which makes sense. If anything, it's a failure to use a 301 moved permanently header.

- aidos 14y agoAh, interesting. Maybe a case where a 301 could have removed all ambiguity?
- donniezazen 14y agoWow the people are really adamant about not implementing Two-Factor-Authentication in Evernote.

- freewizard 14y agoDid they tell how they get hacked?
- nwh 14y agoWould probably would have been SQL injection, given what was leaked.
- jasonlotito 14y agoNo. If anything, they pulled all the different references into a single thread.
- define_eprime 14y agoAt a former company (which has since gone out of business) I met some people who loved Evernote. One was an administrator who cheerfully kept confidential details about the security of our corporate network in it without once reading the Evernote TOS or considering the consequences if those TOS changed. Even after I explained that those TOS clearly violated several parts of his employment agreements, he continued to use it. He didn't think there was anything wrong since our CFO also kept a lot of sensitive information in it...
