Nope, people have been told not to use weak passwords for years and I still know a few who use dictionary passwords with maybe a number at the end, or two. They care, but not enough to change.
- shurcooL 14y agoIt's one thing to be told not to use weak passwords in theory, but another seeing how many seconds/minutes/hours/years it would take to crack your password and have that number change with each extra letter you type. Or so I would imagine.
- nicholassmith 14y agoA lot of sites use 'your password is weak/strong/very strong' indicators, there's still a lot of weak passwords used for them.
- Evbn 14y agoThey are rather abstract, though. They don't force the user to watch a movie about getting identity thefted.
