> What NPM should do if they really give a shit is start requiring 2FA to publish.

How does 2FA prevent malware? Anyone can get a phone number to receive a text or add an authenticator to their phone.

I would argue a subscrption model for 1 EUR/month would be better. The money received could pay for certification of packages and the credit card on file can leverage the security of the payments system.
