But also ‘passwords don’t even matter anymore. They don’t keep you safe. Get an MFA’ And yet it has to be changed every 3 months with complicated instructions on characters

I like the businesses that ask you for your email address and they send you a code and then you put that code into their box and they do a new one every time like that, so there's never a password required.

my bank blocks the ability to copy and paste passwords into the password change form.

want to have a 128 character alphanumeric password with multiple special characters? you're going yo type it allllll in, twice.

oh, you have @%:;}°¥¢ characters in your password? we only allow !?+-(). now do it again.

hey, we noticed your password has too many repeating characters. repeating characters: 88 now do it again.

hey, your password must start with a letter.

hey, can't be an uppercase letter.

hey, can't end with 0

almost as bad as directtv

Was working on my gramps account yesterday... the website auto logs you out when you click a link then they have a limited amount of times you can do email 2fa in a 24h period so after 4 or 5 logout you are locked out of your account for 24h
