You should never give legit answers to these security questions. I just paste in the output of pwgen -s 32 1. This may make your account harder to "recover" but it also makes it harder to steal.
- raverbashing 14y agoFor a compromise, you can add the correct answer but with a quirk. (that is easier, unless you forget the quirk) like, put the first name in "Mother's maiden name", or the middle name, or swap their position And you are right to treat it as a passsword
