They're essentially useless. 2FA is much better. Sites that require you to set up secret questions are evil. I just use them as an opportunity for a second password unrelated to the question(s) asked. -
@Spotty or it'll be like "what's your dog's name"... yea go over to their house once and you'll know.

I promise you it's not as bad as Verified by Visa's stupid 8 character password limit.

@captain_to_fire I have both and MasterCard lets banks do their own Secure thing so Banks can put it in their app or whatever which is wayyy better.
Thankfully not many websites use Verified by Visa
