> major corporations like Google don't use short sessions

Ask a Google employee. When I worked there sessions were limited to 20 hours. Beyond that full re-authentication with password + security key would be needed.



I’m pretty sure they mean for consumer accounts, not their own organizational logins.


Why'd you leave?


Dissatisfaction with the speed at which Google does things due to organizational reasons. Lots of smart people working very hard, only to have little to show.
