Then imagine how hard my heart dropped when I was taking a summer nap and suddenly Google notified me (through my Android phone) that some suspicious login activity was taking place in my main mail account. The panic!
Yes, I reused my Gmail password in $pwnd_service. Bad idea.
Fortunately Google managed to detect the unusual activity and lock them out, but maybe others aren't that lucky. That event led me to finally use a password manager and stop reusing passwords everywhere.
What an afternoon, trying to change password from all services I could remember. Can you remember all services you signed up for with your email? Cause I definitely didn't.
Quite a humbling experience.
