I one time called a service that I used a randomly generated string for the security questions.
After they asked the question I said "oh it's a giant random string of crap, hold on..." The person replied "yeah that's good enough" and started the next step before I even had a chance to find the actual string!
- tonyztan 9y agoThis. I've had the exact same experience with support accepting "a long string of random crap" as an answer. Now I recommend people to use diceware to generate their security answers with actually readable words. (https://www.rempe.us/diceware/#eff https://www.rempe.us/diceware/#eff)
- ameister14 9y agoNo need for diceware - use lines of poetry. They're made for people to memorize and use strange connections between words. Plus they often have odd punctuation.
