the only times i have been compromised is when the actual SITE was compromised.
this is when i ordered autoparts, when i bought bitcoin, and online banking with
my credit union.
i dont think most people reuse passwords for their banks and important
providers.
they may reuse passwords for their junk services.
but people are stupid, but who knows.
all i know is these sites are just as stupid or worse. you dont know what they
are doing with your data or how they are storing it. until it makes front page
new. dropbox still won't admit to it. i get hack attempts from my dropbox alias
emails all the time. for over 5 years.
