问HN:我被监禁了18个月,失去了对我的GitHub的访问权限。我该怎么办?
嗨,朋友们,
事情是这样的:我曾入狱,现实生活中我的个人物品被盗,盗窃者还更改了我许多密码。因此,我无法恢复我的 GitHub 账户。
我通过证明我就是我,已经恢复了大部分数字资产。然而,恢复我的 GitHub 账户比我在 Google Workspace 的经历要痛苦得多。
我有与我的账户关联的原始电话号码,并且可以验证与我的账户相关的一些私有库——甚至可以提供其中一个库的提交次数(接近 6900 次)。然而,我无法提供任何未过期的双重身份验证代码(我有一些旧的,但已经过期了)。
我维护的两个相对受欢迎的 gem 自我离开后就变得不再活跃,而其中的一些项目对我的生存至关重要。话虽如此,单纯开一个新账户并不是我想要的选择。
我已经提交了工单,但我得到的回应是“运气不好,因为我们不知道你就是你”。我理解安全性的重要性,但如果一个人能够证明自己是自己,那又有什么意义呢?
我还有没有其他未探索的途径?

Hi friends,<p>The skinny is this: I went to prison, all my personal items were stolen IRL and the same person changed a bunch of my passwords. Subsequently, I can't recover my GitHub account.<p>I have recovered most of my digital assets by proving I am me. Recovering my GitHub has proven to be more painful than Google's treatment regarding my Google Workspace.<p>I have the original phone number associated with my account, and can verify a bunch of private repos that are associated with my account—even the number of commits on one of them (almost 6900). I can't, however, provide any non-expired 2FA codes (I have old ones that aren't have expired!).<p>I maintain two relatively popular gems that have gone stale since I've been gone, and there are projects in there that, well, I need for my survival. Having said, just opening another account isn't exactly the option I want to take.<p>I've opened a ticket, but I'm getting the "shit out of luck because we don't know you are you" treatment. I understand that security is important, but if one can prove they are them, what's the point?<p>Are there other avenues I have that I haven't explored yet?
