Whilst I would hope they use a strong encryption scheme (with a variable work factor...), most of us know that even the biggest organisations in tech can fail miserably in this area.
But, I don't believe the majority of the forum posters see things the way we do. Many of them obviously correlate "case sensitivity" with "strong password", even though that's not exactly true.
