Ask HN: How can Boost Mobile have a 4-digit numeric password?

1 点作者 buchanae大约 4 年前
Boost Mobile has terrible security. The main password for accounts is a 4-digit numeric PIN – it must be 4 numbers. Behind that password is a lot of data: full name, date of birth, credit card information, phone number, etc.<p>I really can&#x27;t believe it. It&#x27;s so bad that it makes me wonder if it&#x27;s intentional and nefarious.<p>But what are consumers to do? Complain on support forums for years? Isn&#x27;t there some government body that regulates the security of companies who store such critical personal information?

&gt; But what are consumers to do?<p>Use a different Sprint owned MVNO with better security policies? Or even a different company all together.
