This amazing impromptu interview is a great example of why anyone building or using a centralized web based service needs to switch to a password less authentication system, ideally supporting hardware tokens like a Yubikey.
Your grandma can't be scammed out of her password if there is no password or SMS 2FA or anything like that to give the person on the phone scamming her.
I hope new systems like Passkey become ubiquitous. Sure if you use Google or Apple for your keystores it's not ideal, but still a big improvement. And there's no lock-in saying you HAVE to use a hosted keystore/password manager, it's an open standard with multiple open-source implementations. </end_rant>
