Ask HN: Password Character Limitations
1 points by throwfast1 3241 days ago
I was recentially creating a password for an account and all characters were allowed except '&'. I am interested if anyone knows a reason why that character and that character only was left out of their 'mandatory' characters for a strong password.

forgive my ignorance if the answer is obvious, just seemed weird to me.
