The continuously increasing demands by little geek types hiding in some lab, that believe the average person needs a 12 digit password, using both uppercase and lowercase letters, at least one number, and one special symbol, that doesn't include any part of the user name, or any three letter or longer words found in a dictionary for accessing a home wifi is a little ridiculous. But they move a little further that way every day.
And some sites I use now require changing those passwords every 60 days, what joy.
One of my pet peeves, also. I really don't want to remember my Iphone password to access the Istore every time I need to get an app. The passwords seem to get more complex and maybe that's to reduce infiltration across the encryption algorithm but it's a pain.
