End of Life for Twilio Authy Desktop App
I assume many companies are using Twilio for their SMS OTP auth.
Does that mean Twilio has a financial interest in steering users away from using Authy?

Right. Which is why they were noting the implication that if Twilio earns a higher margin from an SMS 2FA vs an Authy 2FA, maybe the owners of Authy would discourage the use of Authy through actions like this.
