Of course, the Gawker empire has some experience with taking advantage of hapless techies who leave their phones at the bar...
Facebook’s new “One Time Password” feature, announced this afternoon, is actually pretty cool, at least in concept. The idea is to allow people to use shared internet kiosks more securely by texting them a password that expires after 20 minutes. That way, even if the kiosk is infected with software recording the passwords you enter, nothing useful can be harvested from it. The trouble is, anyone who finds your cell phone, say in a bar,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], has an easy way to get access to your Facebook account. The solution is to unlink your cell phone from your account as soon as it’s lost,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but you’ll only do that if you know this new password-to-phone feature exists in the first place. Which is why Facebook should probably being spreading the word more aggressively than with a single blog post.
