      Governments are wanting to control the internet and trying to put loads of pressure on big internet companies to comply with their wishes...I see eventually they will probably get what they want.

        Just noticed this while applying this month's patches. I know I've seen some on here complaining about the 14 character limit before, so just in case you didn't read the release notes...

          Me. I tried to set the minimum password length to 16 at a client with Server 2008 R2 and found out 14 was the largest I could set it to.

            I found it odd this was a Windows 10 update and not a Server or Group Policy definition update. Maybe the latest 1803 GP enable this, and they're just having to do an update to pre-1803 systems to play along? I'll have to look more into it tomorrow.

                      I don't. I think I just heard my wallet scream just looking at the picture.

                                            @kelly When I get some time I planned on making a whole thread on this in several forums. From what I've read and heard these rules are bat-shit insane.
