2FA is free and keeps safe your accounts, which in turn reduces the risk of identity fraud, theft from online resources and protects those who may be listed as contacts or associates in those accounts.

For example, if your email account is compromised, someone could send your friends and family phishing emails from your account and defraud them of money or belongings. In turn, their accounts could also be compromised and so the cycle continues as it has been for many many years. By not using 2FA, these criminals will continue to prosper and people you know will continue to lose out. Not protecting yourself online actually goes a long way to not protecting others.

A 20ft high, 2ft thick concrete wall with barbed wire is absolutely necessary if you have something to protect and keep safe. A prison needs these things in order to keep the contents in and the public safe. Same thought process applies to 2FA - it keeps your contents safe and protects other people from being the next step after your accounts are compromised.

If everyone used 2FA, there would be a huge reduction is scam emails, phishing and fraud. Not using it is doing nothing more than enabling the people that commit these crimes because you’ve made their goals not only possible, but on the whole, pretty easy.

Facts remain facts, no matter what analogy you try to use against them
