Show me where the proof is that they STORE it plain text. This is just a screen of a mail after creating an account.
They can't send it if they haven't stored it, that's the proof. Whether temporary or not it's a weakness and attack vector for obtaining unhashed passwords. And if they stored it, it should be immediately hashed at which point they can't send it.
That... is not how it works. It is usually hashed and at the same time an email is sent. Meaning it's not stored plaintext in any storage.
You'll forgive me for not trusting anyone who can tell me my password that isn't me.
That's a totally different statement than that in your post.
Sure, if you're illiterate.
Arguing is not your thing, buddy? 🤡
