Why don't Google and Apple adopt passcodes to avoid this scam from working? Their operating systems already support passcodes.

What do you mean? How would passcodes help phishing?

The solution is passkeys, which prevent phishing and more secure than passwords. I like how they replace SMS codes. But they are a pain to use and not that many sites support them. Every site that does 2FA should support them.
