Jesus, my son wanted to add a classmate as a friend on Xbox Live last night. It should have been a two step process from a parent perspective: Authenticate, then authorise (though the lad was delegated the task of the latter technically).
When he tried to add the friend, I had to:
Enter my parental code (fair enough);
Enter my Microsoft Account password because it was apparently a transaction involving personal data;
Scan the QR code to do this on another device (admittedly optional);
Enter the email address of my MS account;
Enter the 2FA code emailed to me;
Stop the passkey creation process;
Confirm that I didn’t want a passkey;
Skip the age verification;
Turn off the personalised ads
Just so he could get to the point where he could select “add as a friend”, what the actual fuck
