Why they literally don't want me to be using a strong password?
I'm looking at you, EA and PayPal.

They don't hash passwords, or do they?

The best is when they truncate your 16 character password down to like 12 or something, but don't tell you.

>Have to create an account at a bank to pay my auto loan
>Password security rejects my 15-character passphrase that has symbols, numbers, and capital letters.
>Has a list of like 10 requirements for passwords. Must include a special character. Must include a number. Minimum and maximum bounds for password length. Must not contain two letters next to each other. Must not contain a successive set of numbers or letters. WTF?
>Finally create account, have to verify my bank account to transfer funds.
>Bank wants me to give them the login credentials to my other bank account to verify I own it, something literally EVERY FUCKING COMPANY EVER tells you never to do.
>Here's the kicker: until recently passwords WERE NOT case sensitive.

And that's the day I realized I'd never willingly use Chase for banking.
