Ahhh, if that's the case I was mistaken. Anytime a company talks about adding a token type physical device I assume it's in addition to. the article linked didn't go into details, so perhaps I assumed. Perhaps they are trying to replace passwords entirely, which is indeed kind of a bad idea. It's just swapping one form of security for another, not combining two which would make it stronger.

If you are correct, I am not a fan of this either.
