X Marks the Spot: Re-Enroll Passkeys & YubiKeys or Face Account Lockout!

X users, brace yourselves! Re-enroll your passkeys and YubiKeys by November 10, 2025, or face account lockout. The platform isn’t holding your accounts hostage—just migrating domains. So, re-enroll for seamless access, or risk a locked-down social life. Remember, disabling 2FA is like leaving your front door open—highly discouraged!

Hot Take:

Looks like X is pulling a Houdini on its users’ 2FA! Just when you thought you had your digital fortress all set up, they’re asking you to play musical chairs with your security keys. If you don’t want to be locked out of your own account, you better dance to their tune before November 10th. Who knew online security could be this entertaining?

Key Points:

  • Users with passkeys or hardware security keys must re-enroll by November 10, 2025.
  • Accounts failing to re-enroll will be locked until action is taken.
  • Re-enrollment is due to the domain migration from twitter.com to x.com.
  • This change affects only Yubikeys and passkeys, not other 2FA methods.
  • Re-enrollment involves disabling old keys and confirming with a password.

Okay, deep breath, let's get this over with. In the grand act of digital self-sabotage, we've littered this site with cookies. Yep, we did that. Why? So your highness can have a 'premium' experience or whatever. These traitorous cookies hide in your browser, eagerly waiting to welcome you back like a guilty dog that's just chewed your favorite shoe.
