   Just a word of warning, Sony, when resetting your PSN password, doesn't have a character limit on the password, but then when you log in, they set a 32 character limit, except that their forms won't work, but a 30 character password does work.

   I just reset my password 3 times to figure this out.

   Fun of idiots who don't know how to do security.

     Always reassuring when you see stuff like:
     %%DCIM_CUSTOMERSERVICE_URL%%

     in an email.

     So, as usual, big corp fails at security. It allows me to set a password longer than 32 characters, but PS Remote Play login page will only accept 32 characters.

     Wonder if someone could mess with that login page by ignoring the limit set by the page. (not immediately easy as it's using the built in web browser so I can't get access to the console).

     Sony must be having network breaches every couple years because I keep having to reset my password.

     Note that either way, it's confusing because I don't have to relogin to my consoles, so it's a bit weird that they're forcing resets so often.
