LeakedIn.org - check if your password was leaked

[Bunk]

I remember one site that so irritated me that the password ended up as "feckoffanddie"

I think I had a password along the lines of "BT are a bunch of f**king useless ****s". I'll leave it to you to guess what company it was for

To save passwords in the database is unforgivable these days, you hash them with a salt so if the database is compromised the hashes are useless. Also pasting your password into a random site to check if it has been leaked is idiotic.

Just checked the passwords for linkedin and all of my credit and debit cards, Bank accounts, Paypal, ebay and Amazon.

None of them are on there so no need to change any of them

Satire is primarily a literary genre or form, although in practice it can also be found in the graphic and performing arts. In satire, vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, and society itself, into improvement. Although satire is usually meant to be funny, its greater purpose is often constructive social criticism, using wit as a weapon.

I see what you did there

I just use a really stong e-mail password.

All others I keep in KeePass and make the random generated passwords. So if one is crached then all others aren't.

First time I've seen a moderator on a forum dishing out insults, shouldn't you hand in your mod badge and let someone more psychologically balanced do it?
