I’m lucky my banking app works (GrapheneOS), as it’s now requiring 2FA with the app anytime I login on the browser. Can’t use an actually secure form like TOTP. At least they now allow passwords over 8 characters (yes, serious).

    I hate this so much!

    My bank is like that and another horrible thing is that after you choose your password (which can be long and complex) you need to choose a 6 DIGIT restore code incase you forgot your password…

    Why is is my BANK so bad at security??

      Wait

      You have a second password that’s (opens calculator) 20 bits of entropy???

    Are you 100% certain they don’t just truncate your password to 8 characters?

      I’ve seen a website that silently truncated my password during a password reset, but then wouldn’t truncate it during login. It took me a while to figure out why my password never worked.
