That's not what I wrote at all. I'm just talking about downgrading the onion addy generation to become a simple password authentication scheme. It's bad but no worse than logging into webmail without any 2FA.

If you really don't understand what I'm talking about I can put together a PoC. But it's extremely straightforward so I'd rather not if you can just re-read what I wrote and grok the idea.
