If they go through the effort they can have mine. The only stipulation is that they have to send hateful speech about Middle Eastern people to @drunkmuggle in at least 50 separate messages

Actually, my Facebook MFA isn't based on SMS. It uses a code that I pull up in my Facebook app on my phone. Changes every minute or so.

He'll create a GUI interface using visual basic to backtrace the cellular source, obviously.

im not sure. i just remember reading a horrifying story about how some dude's bank account got hijacked because the hacker somehow was able to intercept the guy's SMS-based MFAs.

i've heard SMS based MFA is insecure, but it sounds like you're not doing that so nice.
