How do I disable 2FA? I do not own apple products any longer nor do i want to. However I do need to turn off 2FA for certain Apple Services.

You cannot turn it off if it’s a new Apple ID or it’s been more than two weeks since it was turned on. However you don’t need an Apple device, just make sure your trusted phone number is up to date and add a backup Trusted Number so you can get the authorization code by text.
