⚡️🚨 ALERT - 16 billion passwords of Apple, Google and Facebook users have been leaked.

This is the largest password leak in history.

Platforms affected include Apple, Google, Facebook, GitHub and many others...

"This is not just a security breach. It's a template for mass phishing, account hacks and digital identity theft on a global scale. This is fresh intelligence that can be exploited on a massive scale," say the researchers.

Use passkey, webauth, like with Yubikey or similar, this will make you password leak unusable. Of course you must have unique password and use a password manager to generate and enter strong and long password.

All these services support passkey and webauth. It's the only phishing-proof, easy to use, privacy friendly 2FA.

What happens if one loses the yubikey?

You have ways to restore access, like with a second Yubikey, or a sheet of 10 uniques codes or another 2FA (but make sure to not make the weak link) or even a 3FA sometimes (psw+ phone code + email/backup email for email, or phone app 2FA...).
