Here I'm explaining to the reader what is two-factor authentication (2FA). Even though 2FA, it's pretty common these days, different websites use different terminology and tools, and I suspect the whole thing to need such an explanation to put less techie readers in context. As such, I prefer referring to the most common and well-know app for TOTP, which seems to be Google Authenticator. We're not recommending to use Google Authenticator in Tails.

<p>In the future, we want to allow cloning the Persistent Storage when
upgrading as well, for example to make it quicker to update a [[backup Tails
USB stick|doc/persistent_storage/backup]]. ([[!tails_ticket 20362]])</p>

Maybe Freeotp+ https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.liberty.android.freeotpplus/ can be a better alternative to Google Authenticator?

<p>When doing automatic upgrades, the size of the download increases over time.
If you do a manual upgrade, the size of future automatic upgrades will become
smaller again.</p>

If burned on a DVD, then this DVD would be outdated on the next release. This means after 4 weeks at most.

Many websites offer two-factor authentication as a safer method than using just a password. For example, you can configure an authentication app, like Google Authenticator, to generate a one-time code of 6 digits when signing in to a website.

No. Upgrading whenever you get a notification from *[[Tails Upgrader|doc/upgrade]]* is enough.

However, as [[discussed above|doc/first_steps/welcome_screen/mac_spoofing#what-is-mac-address]], disabling MAC address anonymization makes it possible for someone to track your geographical location. If this is problematic, consider using a different network interface, like a [[USB Wi-Fi adapter|doc/anonymous_internet/no-wifi#wifi-adapters]], or moving to another network.
