My password did get leaked…it was “asdfasdf”

It’s comments on a blog.

Worst case scenario, someone steals my account and posts fake comments….

Really not at the top of the list in my security concerns…

So, every single website that needed a password got a secure one, and they were all different. Best of all worlds.
