I really hate services that use 2FA but the app runs on your phone. Like the android app for ms teams still wants me to enter a 2FA code that I recieve on the same phone! This adds zero extra security, the teams app should just directly ask for my fingerprint if that is even necessary.
I hate that soooo much. It's the scummiest companies that do this to force you to use their app. Even banks do it.
I hate how companies act like our mommies and daddies needing to protect us. I should be able to make my password “coolguy” or “password” (not that I ever would) and if I get hacked that’s MY fault. It’s so annoying how it gets more and more complex as time goes on. I hate having to make it 90 characters long with 3 social securitiy numbers 10 special characters 3 katakana and 5 hiragana characters and at least 2 characters in Cyrillic
Gives you absurd password requirements
Immedately leaks all your personal data by storing in planetext with no real security
omg so much this. also
sends you an email about losing your data in which they make it sound like it was inevitable
Those sites are probably storing it in plaintext instead of hashing it like they're supposed to, and so they set upper char limits. That makes it worse.
'If you had read my email, you'd know that the three most common passwords are "Sex, secret, and GOD." So if her Majesty would change her password?'
honestly computer security has the mindset of authoritarians, you can tell how much law enforcement and legal compliance influences the field
