the UK has made it illegal for bad passwords to be used as defaults

"admin & "12345" new laws in the UK aim to make it tougher for cyber attacks to succeed and increase consumer confidence in the security of the products they use and buy

Under the new regime, manufacturers will be banned from having weak, easily guessable default passwords like ‘admin’ or ‘12345’ and if there is a common password the user will be promoted to change it on start-up.

Not a bad idea, but the x ref file to load on bootstrap to check passwords will be a bit of a challenge I think.

If only people were not soooo lazy sans stupid. 😂
