The 25 most popular passwords used in 2015 is out and they’re easier to crack than a Brendan Dassey confession. Like the people who use these passwords either are mental midgets or don’t have a crazy ex. I guess I can’t hate on them too much, I click the ‘Forgot Your Password?’ link far more than I’d like to admit, thanks to the need for a fucking number and special character. Words, numbers, and symbols–slow down there Bank of America, no one’s going to steal the $18.47 out of my checking.
Every year, SplashData aggregates a list of millions of stolen passwords then sorts them out in order of popularity. The results this year are based on over 2 million stolen passwords. Gizmodo compared this year’s results with last years, and yep, we’re still unoriginal fucks.
