It pisses me off that so many companies store a database of X number of your old passwords in the first place. Like, fuck off twerps, I probably still use those old passwords for at least 20 other logins. When your shitty database is compromised I now have to worry about all of them.
Last time I had to implement a feature like that, I stored a substring of the old password's hash. If one User in a million gets a False quotation Mark same Passwort quotation Mark message, I can live with it.
Hey, İ know quotation marks are expensive, but since I like your attitude to keeping your users secure you can have some of mine: " " " " "
You can just paste copy them into your next post.
I would like to donate as well:
