Last week, I got a mail from PyPI, the Python package index. They informed me that one of my open source projects had been designated as ‘critical,’ and I was therefore required to enable two-factor authentication. If I didn’t oblige, I would soon lose the ability to add new releases or modify the project.
The project in question was Cerberus. The ‘critical’ designation happens when a project has been in the top 1% of downloads over the prior six months.
