It's time to stop asking users for periodic password changes

Oh that’ll get old when what3words takes off and everyone starts using the 3mx3m square around their front door as their password.

Know someone’s address? Rotate potential passwords from the site, in a spiral pattern around their address until you hit the correct three-word combination.

More seriously, though, (only slightly) if three random words is a good password, maybe the what3words guys are missing an opportunity for their database to be used that way. Pick a memorable place and there’s your password. All you need to remember is the memorable place (down to its 3mx3m square location).

(And it will never catch on / get critical mass because the US would never adopt it as nobody there knows what a metre is.) :wink:
