I use a password manager, have done over the past 6 or so years, but definitely had poor password habits before that.
There are probably a number of websites I used between 2000-2010 that I no longer access, so that's somewhat worrying.
This is a really interesting article though, I think Troy is doing the world a service with the work he's doing.
- StavrosK 9y agoWhy is it worrying? If you have good password habits now, nobody will be able to get into your current sites using the old password, and you presumably don't care about the old sites any more.
- brainfire 9y agoThere are possible reputational effects if they're linked to your current identity somehow.
- WorldMaker 9y agoIf they are still linked to your current identity than change the passwords now (or better yet, yesterday) or delete the accounts altogether.
