The clueless of the internet use highly insecure passwords, but not any NerdZone members, obviously. Also, remember not to reuse any passwords on different sites: one password, one site.

Britons appear to have little regard for the security of their online accounts, based on new research of the country's most popular passwords.

If you say His Muskiness’s name on Twitter it’s like Beetlejuice, except it summons his hordes of zombie human minions, so people have taken to creative censorship. I’ve seen El*n M*sk, Elope Minsk, Melon Husk and Felon Tusk.
