Oh I have no problem with regular forced password changes, say quarterly or
so; I'm used to that in other contexts.  But not a one-time password, which
will actually increase risk because people will choose "keep me logged in"
to avoid having to get a new  password every time they want to log in.

These tend also to be solutions coming from moneyed countries, and some of
these things involve technology that is not globally available.
