It's a long article or I would have copied and pasted it for you...

How about just linking since it is clearly long...

CLICK HERE FUCKER

Way too confusing! I've had the same method for decades & never a problem: birthday backwards , name of the site without .com if it needs a capital it's always the first letter of the sites name, if it needs a character it's always a dash between the birthday and site name (ie 822106-Gfy) easy peezy!

Half the time I can't remember my own name...much less some fucking password!

It will be nice when they get to the point that there are enough biometric besides iris ids and fingerprints, voiceprints, and have instant DNA analysis to be compared with the stored in your iPhone which will have it's sim chip no longer in the phone but inserted into the individual user's body...quite possibly interfaced with the central nervous system so that implantation behind the ear would be ideal with the location near the brain.

plenty of websites I use first require your phone number which you receive an OTP, you enter that, then you have to enter your password.

Thats 3 steps authentication and I don't mind it as they are usually sites that contain financial information or allow you to perform transactions.

Also, changing your iphone passcode to a long series of numbers apparently makes it nearly impossible to gain access.

This is a password

I just use ilikepoo for everything. Or ilikepoo1 when i need a number. Or ILikePoo when I need caps... I just like poo :2 cents:

Even if passphrases become a thing there's still plenty of stupid people still going to use '123456' or 'password'.

been using a password generator for years as well

Roboform. 'Nuff said.

yep, great generator on that site, been using it for years

$openssl rand -base64 189

just select characters/numbers from the string you generate.
