I just recently had to make a password for some website.
The requirements were to use at least one capital letter, at least one number, and EXACTLY ONE of a short list of special characters in your password. It also could be no longer than 10 characters.
Major wtf moment.
It was a financial site wasn't it. They're the worst for not updating security guidelines.
There are various reasons I hate the banks I use. One of the top reason is this ancient obsolete password rule.
The biggest reason to hate my banks is they're forcing to use their android app and policing how I can use my phone by refusing to run if I have accessibility service on, and developers options enabled.
I just keep updating my reviews as they are anti disabled people[1].
