So my company acquired another company the other year, and I'm doing stuff for it. And that includes getting into a bunch of accounts. But I have access to the email addresses, that means I can change the passwords if I don't have it.
So today, just now, I go to make an account on a site. It says there's already an account under that email. Okay, whatever, I'll just throw in something random and be told no then hit forgot password. Hey, let's put in "password" as the password. Because who would do that!
Chat, you will not believe what happened. Even I didn't believe it, until I opened up another browser and logged in, again, with "password." And, of course, Chrome tells me "hey buddy that uhhhhh password you just used was found in a data breach. You should pick another one." Yeah no shit.
