I have it on good authority that some people use the same static email address their entire life. And some don’t even update their passwords, nor add 2FA.

Zcash has unified addresses, which is a brilliant technology. Bitcoin will have it soon.

this is most people

Most people look at me like IM the crazy one when I tell them they shouldn't have the same password for everything

And it shouldn't be 1234.

Phone numbers too

My number is beyond compd. It’s time for a new one or none altogether

updating your password is how you start forgetting your passwords

Those things are sticky cause they get stored everywhere, then it's hard to change all of them. Cybersecurity isn't secure at all.

Email sucks

An email is basically a public identity πŸ«†, makes sense people doesn't want to change its adress constantly, at least once you are an adult.

Use aliases …

I just had an argument with my teenage daughter that saving passwords in Apple isn't a good idea.

I save some - depending on what it is. Not sensitive stuff.

We've observed that some people / organisations are storing sensitive emails, and even documents, on gmail and google docs

Not sure where to begin with that one!

Yeah I’m cooked tbh
