Cqrd,

Strong disagree. It’s much easier to reliably find things on Usenet and I don’t have to worry about even using a VPN. I’ve received ISP complaints using torrents, nothing at all from Usenet (and it’s unlikely I ever will, given the nature of how usenet works). Also I don’t have to worry about seeding or anything like that (which is why it’s unlikely I’ll receive a complaint letter).

Usenet is the answer to finding content reliably and it’s so, so easy.

Cqrd,

This requirement forces people who can’t otherwise remember passwords to fall into patterns like (kid’s name)(season)(year), this is a very common password pattern for people who have to change passwords every 90 days or so. Breaching the password would expose the pattern and make it easy enough to guess based off of.

Cqrd,

Secops has been against this method of protection for many years now, I’d say you’re the outdated one here

Cqrd, (edited )

We’re on the internet, you can say shit.

If your user is just using johnsmithfall2022 as their password and they update the season and year every time, it’s pretty easy for hackers to identify that pattern and correct it. This is not the solution and it actively makes life worse for everyone involved.
