RE: Third Update to July 14th Security Announcement - Account Recovery Begins

in #steemit8 years ago

If human beings are coming up with the passwords instead of a good password manager, they are already at risk. But yeah, password security is hard. (Cue XKCD post here...)

Sort:  

Its nice though not to be as worried about it as much as other cryptocurrencies, as long as most of your Steem is in Steempower. :)

I don't think I've ever used the word "as" 4 times in two
sentences before.

5 times.
(And in 1 sentence. :D)

As one who has seen many exchanges get hacked, I completely agree. As we move forward, we have to act as if we're our own bank.

(dang it, only got 3 "as")

I don't think I've ever used the word "as" 4 times in two sentences before.

If they are using the web interface, the web interface could "cut" easy to guess passwords by requiring long password at least X chars, containing symbols, numbers, letters, caps, etc.

Haha, that's true, buddy. :)
