Sign-In Error. Two-Factor Auathentication Not Working and Locked Out for more than 15 Minutes.

Hey Mozilla, can I sign into my account? Everytime I try to sign in on the browser, it fails to sign in because it thinks there is suspicious activity, I wait a while and try again.

Now guess what I get the "You’ve tried too many times. Please try again ⁨in 15 minutes⁩" message.

Can I ask why?

Has this thing actually stopped anyone? If someone wanted my info that badly, I think they would wait 15 minutes, but that is very well besides the point. The 2FA which sends an email in case of suspicious activity failed numerous times on your end when I typed them in, I even signed into my mailbox just to copy it straight to see I wasn't typing in error.

Please, if we're not too confident on email-based tokens, then can we disable the email 2FA; I was doing very much fine with my Authentication Token Generator before all of this started ruining my day.

I just reset my password. It fixed itself I guess. 😛

Whenever it fails to sign-in, it shows me this message.
