Probably Italy. All institutions and many households still have a working but unused fax line in Italy (which most photocopiers still support). Many documents can only be transferred either in person or by fax.
We are not savages, we have low cost multi-gigabit optic-fiber household connections available in the majority of cities. Our bureaucracy is just anachronistic.
PEC is usually not free (neither is fax, but a landline is more common than PEC). But also, I think it’s not accepted everywhere. Maybe you can also use posta raccomandata. But for that you must go to the post office in person and wait in line with other 10 pensioners, and it also costs, so you are probably better off just handing the document in person.
Ah that’s a shame, if they made it free (at least for communication with the state) i think it could clear up the fax situation a lot. They did this in my country and it got rid of the faxes
One is for registration and one is for login with a new device, although it’s technically not even a new device I just uninstalled and then reinstalled the app…
My healthcare governmental insurance… last time I had to request a password. Took 2 good weeks. Fucking crazy inefficient process for an application that in the end exposes close to zero PII. The juicy stuff is behind another account with 2FA and more.
“Login with your Address”
Who will implement this?

Germany-Italy-Japan the Faxes-Axis remains strong.
The faxis
USA too for a lot of shit, now that we’re an axis power I guess
So many of those fax lines are just email servers in a trench coat in the US though
Can’t you just send official stuff via Posta elettronica certificata? I thought that was the point of these sorts of systems

Sometimes banks give you a PEC address, but it’s mostly for communicating with the bank, and you are paying for it as part of the bank’s services.
Ahahah ah. Germany sends its regards.
OMG Verizon.
I JUST saw this yesterday when resetting my password.
I expect they just mail you a temporary password with 2FA turned off.
Nextdoor does this haha
Exactly how I heard about the app. They must regularly be searching home purchases because it showed up pretty quickly after I moved in.
I’m currently waiting on two separate authentication codes in the mail so the answer is, it’s already implemented quite often.
For login or registration?

That’s hilarious. I had to do it once in Spain but it was only for registration. After that you verify your phone number and use that.
German?
Yep
Token has expired. Please try again.

My bank, social security, email provider, and the tax office.
But only for account creation.
It’s common for registration. Would be fun to have it for authentication as well. “My session expired. I need 3 days to log in again”.
24h timeout for security.
There’s some tax thing here where they send you the password by post.
Google does this a lot.
