MODERATORS
Definitely a UI issue because it is not clear what the user is supposed to do according to the UI.
Should I be sitting physically next to the person to confirm? Read out the gazillion character code to them over a regular phone call?
Either
If they are the only two options then it isn't practical. Wouldn't six characters be enough? One in 56,800,235,584 chance of guessing and brute force attacks could be avoided with a limit of 3 tries per hour.
EDIT: Or I could just content myself with the first 6 characters matching. I suppose there is my solution.
You can also use your camera to scan the qr when seeing the person in person.
