The only usefulness of the salt is if somebody steals your database and uses a rainbow table to try to get the passwords. If you don't have salts for each users, then a pre-generated rainbow table for sha1 based on common passwords is going

I remember at 6 years old, my parents had answered that question and I became so terrified of death that I almost couldn't sleep at night... I really don't know how I'm going to answer this question to my kids...

I think the problem here is that evil is relative. You might say that porn is evil and find a reasonable argument for it. And somebody else might not see porn as evil but just as something enjoyable that he likes. If this person creates a p
