    Why would you say that? Services are able to require special characters, variable casing and numbers. Why would the reqirement of max length of the password cause the storage to succumb to plain text?

      This simply depends on if they do that in the browser with Javascript (good) or on the backend.

      So yes, the statement that I copied from someone else is not always true.
