Some sites are throwaway (example: they force a sign-up). Don't assume all weak passwords used are not conscious decisions. Entropy is too precious to give up to throwaway sites of uncertain backend security.

What do mean by giving up entropy? Password reuse? You can use a password manager to generate a secure pass for every site, there's no excuse for weak passwords. Here's a few I made with `pwgen`, get it while it's hot: aiPh9toh_ti{XeS(a=a9ohCheeV`o8pu8woh3Epu ahth6AiT6xahaiw:ie1li`xeeF0ohf!ikeih4Joh zah6cusohNei6feithain4aeH5uul5coh/nap0ea uet7ed"ohhooquoosh3ooh8ZeeY+iepeg0eewena UuNg'aes:i!Quohp0eiGh1ibieghe&o9eiSh7ac9 aexu0Vio3eitheiV=aiweo$ng@u3Seidoo-phoV1

  I'd like to try out #3. "zah" has a nice ring to it. Do you guys minding not using it?

  a shitty site you only plan to use once and you create a throwaway account for is a great excuse for a bad password.

The word "password" suffices for a lot of those. You can find lots of examples of throwaway passwords with associated accounts (and submit your own) at bugmenot.com
