Re: The very definition of "security by obscurity"
Some time ago I set up an account (I don't remember which) that requested my mother's maiden name. So in disgust at being adked to provide such irrelevant personal information, I typed 'bollocks', not realising I would be asked for this information by the girl on customer support. Fortunately she had a good sense of humour. She also thought I was the born in 1999 and my first name is 'po'.
I now have to keep this sort of false information written down, ever since it took two attemots at false mother's maiden name before one support agent would deal with my query.
