Yet. That you know of.

No, some of us use password manager software for exactly this reason - so we don't use the same password across multiple accounts and have a smaller blast radius when/if a password is compromised.
- sandworm101 8y agoLol, until your password manager suffers a breech. Even without a full breech of data, if your password manager's password creation algorithm is made public then your passwords are just as open as anyone else's, perhaps more so. Managers are better, but they aren't the home run people think they are.
- dsnuh 8y agoYou realize there are password managers that aren't cloud based? Also, even if cloud based, they offer TFA. Some offer automatic password rotation/update for your sites. I don't see how the creation algorithm being made public would make my data "just as open as anyone else's, perhaps more so"?
