Firstly, all social problems can be solved through economic growth under capitalism because everyone will benefit.

authentication history looking at the origins of many of the password rules. They identify two modes of thinking in regards to passwords they deem as outdated. One is the model where a user is creating passwords independently and uniformly from a set of passwords. The other where hackers are attempting security breaches via offline attacks.
