@We3D Well, not always. I mean, i know that they are compromised when a hacker has access to one of my account that uses a standard password. But for most accounts, i don't care. Somebody has access to my account for a site like DevRant? Or a login i need to download 3D models? I don't care that much. Maybe i will create a new account (with the same password of course).
Of course, for accounts with value i don't use standard passwords. -
@happygimp0 Just let the browser remember the credentials for those low-value accounts.

@scor Why? What is bad about it? Creating a new account is easier than creating unique passwords.

Optimally there should be no password "requirements" at all. Except for minimum length maybe.

@Lensflare
Fun fact is that most password policies actually *reduce* the entropy in the search space, and thus make bruteforcing easier.
Since they have other measures against brute force, password policies are just downright bad. -
@Lensflare For a lot of websites and services, there shouldn't be an account required at all...

We3D26531y@ostream we are talking about passwords so 'brute force' would come first in mind and not a boyfriend...

If you create a website with a login function, please mention the password requirements on the login page (not just the signup page, in the login page too). So i know which of my default passwords i used for this website.
random
password
