Early days yet (too early to say whether the process will involve the requirement to use short codes.)

I doubt it will, as it will just be a case of receiving one text and entering a one-time code onto a website. I can only see it becoming an issue if you needed to send something back through SMS. Then that might not be shortcodes.

At my old company their VPN system worked like this, you'd get a text sent through to your phone with a one time code you just needed to enter to login.
