Makes you lose faith in humanity, doesn’t it?
Oh wait, you can’t lose it if you don’t have it.
Let me help you with that:
“Reminds you of why you never had hope for humanity, doesn’t it?”
And my answer is yes.
Whose password is ‘mother’?
Norman Bates?
what? no “pony”?
Quagmir. giggidy
I resent that.
How on EARTH can AJCUIVD289 be on the list of most common passwords ???
Yeah, I would like to know that too.
How on EARTH passwords such as ‘qwerty’ ‘azerty’ or ‘asdfgh’ arent?
QWERTY is on there.
‘qwerty’ isn’t, as far as i can tell.
Take a good look at your keyboard. The first row is qwerty, and the second is asdfgh. I’m guessing that azerty is from a different keyboard layout.
azerty is for french keyboard layouts i think
My guess is that it’s the password used for a large number of spam accounts.
http://www.healthypasswords.com/content.What_is_so_special_about_ajcuivd289.html
“After much searching on ajcuivd289 it was found this is a common password used by black hat utilities. Now that website owners know this password is used for nefarious purposes, they can easily purge their rosters of these accounts and possibly prevent new registrations using that password.
Who knows, if human nature is consistent in regards to password reuse, this same password may work to unlock some interesting things.”
For instance, if your account is ever hacked by something nefarious and the password is changed, you know a password to try.
I think the same….
That is the first thing I though too.
my freinds work password is 8675309
Your friend has a crush on Jenny?
my friends work password is 8675309
Your friend has a crush on Jenny?
Nothing on there is a part of my passwords~
So your password isn’t ’1234qwertymother’?
lol its much worse than that, i usually pick things like ‘?’ or ‘~’
*le gasp*
I must be creative because none of the passwords I make are on this list.
14+15+18+1:J.D.SIC
The kind of thing an idiot would have on his luggage!
I love that movie!
That’s amazing. I’ve got the same movie in my luggage!
I’m surprised that took so long.
Hmm, somehow I don’t seem to find my favoutrite password:
e,bqwj:nfhfrfyjd1992.
Yes, this was once my actual password. Not any more, though
liar. hacking into your account now.
My password is so simple, yet it’s not in the list..
Is it Zoe?
No, she/he just said it. It’s “so simple”.
I can’t tell whether the one between “GINGER” and “READER” says “NURSES” or “HORSES”.
Reminds me of deleting someones account. Dumbass used his nickname as password and messed with the wrong guy.
Lulzsec is amazing for doing this. Not surprising though: “6 characters? 123456″
A website I use for work recognizes patterns like that. If you put in “123456″ it would be like “NO PATTERNS ALLOWED ZOMG!!!”
PEANUT?
LOL
How about PECKERHEAD.
I read PEANUT CHARLIE…
my itunes password is nowhere on here (raleigh)
…Why did you…
Can’t tell if trolling…
With passwords like “reader,” “library,” “reading,” and “bookworm” you can really see the impact of public computers at libraries.
My high school librarians password was “phantom” which I always thought was pretty random (so not horrible) but then I discovered it was the password for ALL of the machines in the library. Derp.
where’s cheese?
LOL @ BITEME Just left of DRAGON.
Also TRUSTNO1 above SHADOW.
No one would ever guess the password to even get on my computer.
Best way to make a secure password.
Step 1: make a sentence that you’ll remember easily like “My dad is 51 and was born in 1950.”
Step 2: take the first letters of each word, keeping punctuation and capitals.
“Mdi5awbi1″
Step 3: enjoy
Edit: that password should read “Mdis5awbi1.” forgot the period.
“Mdi5awbi1.”* You put the ‘s’ in there from ‘is’ Thought I’d fix it.
If it takes three tries to get it right when it’s NOT starred out, then clearly your idea is a crappy one. just sayin.
Hey, that’s my idea! Passphrases rock.
I just make up something random and write it down in a text file like 50+ times…
Then it sticks…
Forever…
Like seriously forever…
Also; Try to make it contain both caps and non-caps and numbers and other characters…
Example: 3x4mP/_é
impossibru. my mom was born i n 1959 and she’s 52!
To think a password I once had isn’t on here: “F**KYOU”
Seriously? People are dumb enough to use their names or 12345?
Using a hobby like “reader” is dumb too. And people do that a lot (example: runner, if they run.). If you know them, it’s pretty easy to guess.
they are not dumb, they probably use it just at home or at websites where they don’t really care if they are hacked. You are dumb because you don’t understand everybody is paranoia.
You are both dumb because you don’t understand about play station hackers.
Your’re dumb because LulzSec did not hack PlayStation.
lol mine’s not on here. I use the same password for EVERYTHING, but noone would ever guess it because it’s my arch-nemesis’s mom’s pet name
Well, at least two people would be able to figure it out.
I have the same password for almost everything.
It’s terrible to use the same password. Even if it’s a secure one. You get your Facebook account hacked, and suddenly he knows the password to your emails and bank account and ebay account. Say goodbye to your finances!
I had something like 5Diesis#####5Diesis! before… then i created something better
They said my password should be random letters and digits.
Then they said that “randomlettersanddigits” was too long.
There is no good reason to have a maximum password length. Any site that does that fails.
when I make my passwords, I simply bang my head against the keyboard.
Wow, I’ve never used any of those. But I have to admit ‘Letmein’ and ‘Trustno1′ are amusing.
I’ve never used any of these passwords. Most of mine are random words put together and some numbers lol
knowing a bit of japanese or any foreign language can give you some good passwords replace (romanized) letters with numbers or symbols that kinda look like the letter your replacing and bingo rock hard passwords and deliberately misspelling said words can help too
I use the pass phrases (My dog Reina turned 7 in January = MdRt7iJ) mentioned above too.
I used to use simple word combinations like “glassjarpony”, but after both my Google and Paypal accts were hacked in less than a month, i got a little more paranoid.
These are what should be on graphjam: Infographics. the rest is just teens Whining about their personal life through segmented graphs.
haha my password is 11111
Alphanumeric code generator, and then I SEE THIS.
Not even when I was 8 I had passwords like these.
This is why whenever I need a new password I just punch the keyboard a few good time while I’m in notepad then write down whatever gibberish comes out.
I always pick random sentences like ArealNiggafromSenegal
Mine used to be blazingrasenganspiritbomb23 for all of my online profiles. But now it is something completely different and complex. *insert evil “me gusta” face*
it’s “!@#$%^”
I’m surprised that my password isn’t on here.
I use phrases that have no meaning but are easy to remember like crimsonhorsetree or lionsilverknight
It’s funny because NONE of these are my pass.words
Shouldn’t ‘password’ and ‘password1′ be on here?
Password is there (at the top), but I didn’t see password1.
I’m not telling how I make my passwords, but I’ll tell you ‘yes’ or ‘no’ if you guess.
Hint: it’s similar to one of the methods mentioned here.
Googled “ajcuivd289″
Google: “Did you mean to search for: ajc usd289″
no “asdasd”?
haha my name is there. Thats kind of awkward, thousands of people type in my name to log on every day…
Meh, mine’s got 6/7 special characters, 5/6 letters and 2/3 number. How can people be so lazy?
Not giving out right number though
There were 62 “AJCUIVD289″, probably it was the password of some corporation’s workers, on 62 accounts.
I’m surprised “penis” is not on here.
im surprised “love” “sex” “secret” and “god” isnt in there /nerdrage /hackersfan
None of mine are here…I was very surprised when I saw my name show up, since it’s not very common.
why isn’t “AAAAAAAC” there?
and I must be blind or something, I came here to point out that PASSWORD wasn’t there before noticing the giant PASSWORD over 123456
Hah. I have an unbreakable password. I typed random letters, saved it as a text file, then converted it to a .bat file, compressed it to a ZIP, Compressed it to a RAR, made it into a 7z. file, then made it a hidden file.
So I don’t even know what it is anymore.
123456? I have the same combination on my luggage!
ASDFGHJKL THEY HAVE MY PASSWORD!! FUUU MUST CHANGE IT. IT IS TOO MAINSTREM hipsterglasses.jpg
Wtf? Vampire? THERE ARE TEIHARDS IN OUR MIDST! Rageface.jpg
STUPID IPHONE *TWIHARDS fuuface.jpg
Hurray my name is a password xD
No ‘swordfish’?
“Ul027Th3G4/\/\3″ works like a charm
so does “!0\/\/N4H0r2EL0L”
Here’s a list of password one may use:
“Ul027Th3G4/\/\3″ works like a charm
so does, “10Wn4|-|0R23″
and, “damnyoufoundoutmypazzword”
ooh, and let’s not forget, “|_()|_”
and finally, “”Ul027Th3G4/\/\3″ works like a charm
so does “10Wn4|-|0R23″
and “damnyoufoundoutmypazzword”
ooh, and let’s not forget “|_()|_”
and finally”
(I suggest the last one)
Last but not least, h()\/\/|)o/V\48V|37$vV3rc
