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).

    What, do you think banks have the money for storing all those extra unnecessary characters? MS Access databases are only so powerful.

      Never ever ever store passwords in the database. Salted hash only. It’s fixed length even if the password is a gigabyte long.
