Here's the rest of that story too. I went as far as enabling two-step authentication in February of 2018. Last week I tried logging into my google account. My password was complex and 20 characters in length the last time I logged into that account successfully. Last week the password had been changed and whoever did that had it shortened to 14 characters. I ended up deleting my account. If I ever create another google account I will not use any of google's enhanced security features since all of them only provide the authorized users a huge amount of hassle and are trivial for hackers to crack.
