updating, saving, copying, forgetting

doing most anything with my passwords

never fails

to lead me on a trip down the rabbit hole.

 this play-by-play found online describes it perfectly:

‘She died as she lived, clicking “Forgot password,” then checking her inbox for a code, then putting in that code, then setting up two-step verification, and then waiting for the text message that doesn’t come, and then calling the 800 number, and then downloading an authenticator app, and dying.’

  30. Haha! That is one rabbit hole I try to avoid. My favorite is when we’re asked to create a new password. Then, like a well-behaved child I do and get the message, “Password does not exist.”

  31. I quit a certain bank many years ago because it made my logging in more difficult than what any hacker would have endured. And every time I screwed up, they’d LOCK my account and I’d have to go to the bank in person to get it unlocked. And no, a password manager is no help if you can’t get IT unlocked.
