Underdesk Edge-mounted USB Hub [for my Yubikey]

I install an edge mounted underdesk USB hub and SD card reader for easy access to my USB and SD Cards. This was in part for my Yubikey hardware security token that I am using to secure my online accounts. Hackers have been stealing a lot of social media accounts this last year, usually resulting in people I know losing their accounts. One obvious protection against account hijacking is configuring 2FA or MFA on your accounts using a secure method such as a FIDO capable Yubikey!

Among the videos you released so far, which I all liked a lot, this is clearly the most uncomplicated one demonstrating the well known fact that velcro is one of our best friends. Thumbs up, well done! Greetings from Germany!

Very well produced content. I have enjoyed all of the videos you have released.

Great idea. I have 3 computers so will stack them under my desk 1, 2, 3.

Great little hack Ben! What is that key manager you're using to carry the Yubikey?

[miker]

Hey Ben, I like your desk. Where did you find it?

Does the Yubikey 5Ci have to be plugged directly into the computer or will it work with a USB hub/splitter ?
