@Ifalvarado not every company uses authenticator. When enough people mistrust the online services and stop using them enough to impact those company's profits, they'll pressure the government to protect We The People again - briefly.

@TitaniumTurbine it's not even a vulnerability. The MMS servers were/are compromised, hence the messages are readable by the compromising APT group. Add in, it's not only USG sites that utilized 2FA authentication, many commercial and some medical sites do as well. Ideally, encrypted SMS/MMS would mitigate the entire problem, Google did attempt that with an open protocol, but Apple utterly refused to join in, so that went entirely unimplemented. As there was no pressure for Apple to play nice, they didn't and we're all left vulnerable.

The laugh is, the federal government first championed for two-factor authentication. Now, just passwords are secure, which is why they use a smartcard... Really, let's be real, don't trust anything automated. Stop ordering online, when it impacts those big businesses, the government will act to protect those wealthy special interests.
