Damm. Thanks for posting. Just changed my passwords from “password” to “password123”....That should slow them down.

For about a micro, micro second.

Seems like its a good time to use something like a “yubico” security key such that one needs to insert a physical USB device in order to log onto their financial site.

Seems like the company that manufactures your key could make their own back door, but I am a little paranoid since Covid. All our home security systems require us to install an app to activate the cameras, wonder what else that app does?
