I am always pissed off when I discover that a site I use is a plaintext offender. Well, if they are mom and pop establishments that do not deal with money or personal data, I might exhibit a wee bit of tolerance. However, large cooperations have no excuse especially since salting and hashing is such a simple operation. Some sites I have come across include WileyPlus, the online teaching environment as well as surprise, surprise, the submission portal for the International Journal of Information Security(IJIS). You think that with so many postgrad security majors submitting their papers, someone would have raised a stink over it.
