posted a blurb on their facebook. Doubt it'll get read, underneath the pile of useless posts that are completely irrelevant to the subject >.>
Better than nothing right? Most people shouldn't go to suspicious looking sites/download suspicious files anyways. That should be common sense. And technically the authenticator hasn't been hacked yet, people have probably already tried and obviously failed. As of right now, if you follow common sense regarding account security, and have an authenticator, you're virtually unhackable.
I don't really get your point, are you saying it's absolutely pointless to try to have added security?

Hackers will find a way to get access to anything. Trying to stop them isn't 100% guaranteed and eventually they will get past things with time. What if next time they break the cyphers used by the Authenticators and find a way to spoof them? Then what? Literally, an authenticator would end up being nothing more than key chain with a random number generator as the hacker could already find a way to get the code, use it, and poof... you've been hacked and you didn't do anything to contribute to it.
Phones aren't immune to malware either... http://www.toptechreviews.net/tech-news/...id-phones/
