    But you need to buy at least two of them, which isn’t cheap.

      And… honestly, you should probably buy 3. Losing your main key only to find out that your backup key broke a month ago and you haven’t been testing it is a real risk.

        Not every service allow for registering more than one passkey

        And what are they odds of simultaneous losing / breakdown of all three keys? I think they are not negligible.

        I ended up getting one through arstechnica (they sent one if you subscribed back then), then I got more through some sale or something

          Question: do English native speakers also read “arstechnica” as “arsetechnica”
