Security red flag: password length limit

$

While purchasing Start8 and creating a Stardock account, I was shocked that passwords are limited to only 12 characters. This is a pretty big red flag that passwords are not being handled and stored correctly behind the scenes. If the passwords were being stored as salted, one-way hashes behind the scenes, there would be no need for you to limit the length. If you're not already doing it this way, please begin working on it ASAP.

 

Thanks,

Jay
