#two-factor authentication

Players of Obsidian Entertainment's Outer Worlds 2 are apparently trying to provide feedback on the game, but judging by the user's complaint, are getting blocked by its two-factor authentication (2FA) system. In this case, Obsidian Entertainment's support team sent the user an email, which Ango shared on X, instructing them them to contact the "specialized account security team" via email. But the email provides the support address for Ango's company - the wrong Obsidian.

X (formerly Twitter) sparked security concerns over the weekend when it announced users must re-enroll their security keys by November 10 or face account lockouts - without initially explaining why. The cryptic mandate from X Safety on Friday led many to suspect a security breach was behind it. When a platform forcibly rotate security keys, it's often a sign it is working through incident response protocols - eradicating adversaries from a network and keeping them out.
