That's not going to stop people from calling the support line if their account gets compromised. The sort of person who thinks using "dog" as an account password is a good idea generally isn't the sort of person that realizes the role they have to play in maintaining their account's security.

Sure. But at that point, the call center just tells them over and over theres nothing they can do until that person hangs up

i don't relate, because the 'complex' passwords that i create are adding a number and a symbol to my 'previous' password that I can easily remember. security is good? it's annoying that we give people all this tech and they refuse to even minutely understand it - I think it's fine and good that Google forces people to try and make a better password when the human brain could probably use a little kick in the arse after we all collectively forget every phone number we used to memorize.

I think just let people do what they want. The reason most people dont remember every oh one number is because they cam gave us a way to store it on phones (though, people should try to remember important numbers) Forcing people to try and make better passwords doesnt really help, anyway. The little kick from trying to remember wont matter if they write it down, or use a password manager It just makes it so people forget their password more, or make it somewhat easier for someone else to get it because they wrote it down

As long as you have a password that is at least 11 characters and contains at least one uppercase, number, or symbol it is pretty much impossible to get hacked. And by "impossible" I mean it would take 200+ years for modern hacking tools to figure it out.

And hell, you can easily make one that length that is easy to remember. Like "I like Judas Priest". Just don't write it down somewhere or give people clues into what it could be.

I hear it takes a long time But isnt that if its just a computer?

To keep from getting hacked

Its just be better if I didnt have a chance of forgetting it because they pretend to care about me being hacked Especially the ones that make you change it every so often
