Just noticed this while applying this month's patches. I know I've seen some on here complaining about the 14 character limit before, so just in case you didn't read the release notes...
Me. I tried to set the minimum password length to 16 at a client with Server 2008 R2 and found out 14 was the largest I could set it to.

I found it odd this was a Windows 10 update and not a Server or Group Policy definition update. Maybe the latest 1803 GP enable this, and they're just having to do an update to pre-1803 systems to play along? I'll have to look more into it tomorrow.

Looks like the EU is moving to restrict free speech on the internet: https://edri.org/eu-member-states-agree-on-monitoring-filtering-of-internet-uploads/ and http://copybuzz.com/copyright/france-spain-italy-and-portugal-go-beyond-maximalist-on/.

@kelly When I get some time I planned on making a whole thread on this in several forums. From what I've read and heard these rules are bat-shit insane.

WTLF, first gdpr and now a bill to limit what people say and references to a source?
And I thought the USA was an internet backwater...

You have absolutely no idea how backwards the EU is right now, as far as I read. Sure, I have a bit of bias, but at this point I feel like they've crossed over lines that anyone should be worried about.
But, that manages to get a bit political, and is a whole different discussion.
