Now we aren't talking about a security problem, we're talking about who really owns what. Google can lock you out of your account no matter what kind of authentication they use for that account

It's a lot easier to be locked out with a passkey than without one.

  • No it's not. Google flips a bit in their database and no matter what kind of authentication you set up with them, you get denied

    • This does not reflect my own lived experience.

      But if true, that means that Google can choose to not provide you a recovery service, which is functionally the same as them not having it.
