Yeah, I used to use randomly generated strings until a customer service rep asked me to recite my security question answer to them... Now I use something like Diceware for real words.
- SketchySeaBeast 7y agoThat's excellent, I had no idea that existed, I'll have to start using that. Though it is fun to do a game of security question chicken - how much letters are they going to listen to me say until they go "ok, that's good enough"?
