Talk:565: Security Question

The explanation says "security questions are treated much more seriously than passwords." I completely disagree. People generally understand that a password should be complicated but just pick something easily memorable for the security question. The security question is often easier to crack as they can be looked up and the user might tell you the answer inadvertently. For example, in Now You See Me, they trick their rich benefactor into giving up his bank account security answers. 108.162.219.7 02:35, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

I agree, and I've changed the explanation text. --Pudder (talk) 11:17, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

Also now with social media if you don't have enough privacy settings enabled an attacker can find the answers on say your facebook page, and even if you did have the privacy stuff it won't help if the attacker is on your friend list. 141.101.99.117 19:35, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
