+@subsection Disabling OTP code generation for a Yubikey
+@cindex disabling yubikey OTP
+If you use a Yubikey security key and are irritated by the spurious OTP
+codes it generates when inadvertently touching the key (e.g. causing you
+to become a spammer in the @samp{#guix} channel when discussing from
+your favorite IRC client!), you can disable it via the following
+@command{ykman} command:
+
+@example
+guix shell python-yubikey-manager -- ykman config usb --force --disable OTP
+@end example
+
+Alternatively, you could use the @command{ykman-gui} command provided by
+the @code{yubikey-manager-qt} package and either wholly disable the
+@samp{OTP} application for the USB interface or, from the
+@samp{Applications -> OTP} view, delete the slot 1 configuration, which
+comes pre-configured with the Yubico OTP application.
