Present sensitivity to security issues makes me crazy. I should probably use more and better passwords, but I don’t. However, I try to be careful with the passwords I use. This is why the situation I describe below has confused me.
I was trying to add a comment to a WordPress.com blog. I try to write at least one comment a day because I think blogs should be two-way. I am a WordPress user (this site), but I use a version available through a server I rent.
So, I write my comment and then I am asked to provide my email address. This is one way bloggers try to limit spam and I do not object to providing my email address. When I try to submit my comment I encounter this page which now asks for a password. I am not going to provide the password for my email account. This can’t be what I am being asked to do, so I keep think I am missing something. This is what the instructions request.
