Small rant incomming. I just went to look at applying to Walmart, and when going to make an account their password requirements were 8-11 characters. What kinda nonsense is that? Some terribly made backend I’d assume. It’s bad enough I gotta make a million accounts when applying to jobs but then you got my PII sitting behind such terrible password requirements it makes me wonder where else they are cutting corners on security.
I use my password manager to generate 32 character or 64 character passwords whenever possible.
That’s actually a good part of why I trust cryptocurrency over my bank because my bank has all sorts of personally identifiable information and stupid short password requirements where cryptocurrency has no personally identifiable information and seeds are extremely long and complex.
