Oh, I misread then.. honestly I'm completely out of my league on this. You're 1000x (underestimating) more caught up on software and hardware than I am, lol. I just manage to get by with very little knowledge about it (:
I read under lost security key - a person would need a verification code not a hard-copy of the key. It sounds like you have that covered in other ways though? Or, I'm not reading all of the information.
I'll just take your word for it! Thank you for being so informative and helpful x)
edit: in any case.... it's way more secure than anything I have myself. I only brought it up in the first place as I was questioning its' worth vs having linkify available on browsers other than chrome.
The verification code is the hard copy. It's up you how and where you store it. For example it's recommended to store a physical copy in your home not on a device.
I've been using for about a year now, and never had need to dig up my hard copy. But it's nice to know if my key ever breaks I can sort it out.
If you have my key, it's useless as no info about my accounts is stored on it. It would be like me finding your front door key. I have no clue what it opens or where the keyhole is.
Laughing at myself atm. I wasn't expecting to explain to all this (it's cool I'm happy to do so) that's why I put the links there. I tend to end up hitting character limit when I discuss stuff like this and was trying to keep it brief.
Anyway I hope it's a bit clearer now
