I remember in primary school, my school district wrote the passwords on index cards and passed them out to kids whenever we need it for online assignments / quiz / (US) State Standarized Exams, and I was just like… um… isn’t that very insecure? (Also I already memorized the password)
Some classmate peeked at my card and I was like: “bruh”…
I told the teacher about it and she just said don’t worry.
And you can’t even change the password, not until middle school at least. Bruh, I always was afraid some dipshit is gonna log in as me and troll me
Who the fuck runs the IT? I could probably do a better job.
Practical obscurity is behind a LOT of today’s security sadly.
I have access to the exam system our law school uses as I co-administer it, there’s definitely a way to send people a raw text version of their password in emails. My boss also asks professors to write down their passwords on sticky notes so he can work on their PCs, this week I heard him give his SSO-connected admin account password to a faculty member over the phone, with the strict instructions she not use it for anything else. Smh. He’s a domain admin. Mmmkay.
