So my company decided to migrate office suite and email etc to Microsoft365. Whatever. But for 2FA login they decided to disable the option to choose “any authenticator” and force Microsoft Authenticator on the (private) phones of both employees and volunteers. Is there any valid reason why they would do this, like it’s demonstrably safer? Or is this a battle I can pick to shield myself a little from MS?
You don’t live in reality if you think anyone is going to retain a labor lawyer and sue their employer over using an authenticator app without a phone stipend.
It doesn’t usually need to go to court if the lawyer can remind them of what laws they’re breaking
I’ve worked in the US for over 20 years and can’t imagine a single case where your plan would actually work without being retaliated against and fired a year or so later. I’m in both an at-will and right-to-work state. Again, if I were going to die on a hill and start an action against my employer that includes lawyers and risk losing everything, it would be for much higher compensation than 40 dollars a month.
