Password length requirement
Password length requirement
Last week, I tried to register for a service and was really surprised by a password limit of 16 characters. Why on earth yould you impose such strict limits? Never heard of correct horse battery staple?

I had to make an account the other day with the absolute worst password requirements I've ever seen:
Do you know the password game?
The digits in your password must add up to 25.
Yeah but the stakes are higher in Jersey you can get fined or even jail for messing up that password.
When I was working on a password system a few years ago, I found some amazingly bad password requirements. One that stuck with me was it couldn't contain any two digit years (e.g. 08).

That sounds like a rule from The Password Game
Ugh, I'm unfortunately even more bothered by the random extra spaces at the start of the first and last requirements than I am by the security horror.
I am now even more relieved that the NJ courts have removed me permanently from jury duty, so my chances of interacting with that entire nonsense has gone down. A bit. Just a bit down.
Now I just must try to not be taken to court or take one to court.
This is where hiding inside might help.
