At that point go with a ridiculously long password to further decrease the odds of a lucky guess.

If the password is changed while the Planck Cruncher is doing its thing, and it changes to something that the PC has already guessed and tested negative, the PC is screwed.

Hint: Change your password regularly.

No.

In the real world having an actual high quality lengthty password is enough to deter anyone who is trying random accounts to move on for easier targets and anything that someone has physical access to, like law enforcement who confiscated something, will have an easier time bypassing the username and password process.

Changing passwords frequently leads to easier to break passwords, especially when you follow the practice of using a different one for different systems.

“People who keep buying from McDonald’s despite an e coli outbreak are the real problem!”

Can’t even blame Blizzard, it’s the people who keep buying this shit that are actually the problem.

Blizzard is the problem because they are implementing the macrotransaction. The people who buy it are enablers but not the real problem.

A common legal requirement for record keeping is 7 years in the US, as they noted in the quote, although some types of records may need to be kept longer. We are not 7 years out from 2018, so still within that standard window.

I have no idea if there is a way around it, and a lawyer would be the right person to provide advice.

As for changing 2fa when you no longer have the phone, the best you can do without a lawyer is contact their support and escalate to a supervisor if they don’t have a way to update that ready to go. First level support will generally not be able to handle that kind of thing, so be ready to escalate. No need tonstart off with any legal threats, just plainly state what the situation is and hownimportant it is to you and there is a high chance of getting the 2fa updated even if you can’t get the account closed.
