   What "forms" of 2FA is Apple requiring for all new Apple IDs?   
      
   The fact is of all common consumer operating systems, as of February 2023,   
   only Apple *requires* you to completely lose your privacy by forcing you to   
   use 2FA (which, for most people, is accomplished by their personal phone).   
      
   Obviously I'm aghast that only Apple completely ignores any request for   
   privacy, but I can't fight it and still log into my Apple ID on my iPads.   
      
   While I gave Apple my personal very private cell phone number, because I   
   was forced to do it in order to create the new Apple ID, my question here   
   is how can we avoid giving Apple our privacy for the rest of our lives?   
      
   What other forms of 2FA can we give Apple to log into new Apple accounts?
