KeeperSecurity.com is the WORST website to store your passwords, and here's why...

Hundreds of passwords?  Really? 

 

I thought I had a lot.

 

But, if you do have that many passwords, and also do store them at one site you probably don't risk much if a few of them are potentially valuable - you've hidden some needles in a big stack of needles.

Yeah, just checked up on it. Lastpass currently has 350 passwords. That's not counting the ones for which I have memorized passphrases which are about 15 and thus not stored in Lastpass.

well if its a real physical sticky note inside the case, it can't be that hard to track down... I mean, it's not like there's that many hiding spots! :P

I hide it in my alienware alpha; it is a really good place.

I like to kill hardware. In 2016 alone I have killed 20 Xeon 5160, and 10+ Pentium 4.

Well they are the admins/hosts of the service so I'm not actually too surprised how they can just delete account without your password...this is like how LTT admins/Mods change things like your signature (this had happened to be because I was a tool and didn't read the COC so had it bigger than size 14...) or my school IT technicians can create accounts and delete them at their discretion...  

I think what he means is that literally anyone could have had them delete his account if they had his email; the chat rep didn't do anything to verify that he was the owner of the account.

I use 24-character randomized passwords... A different one for eah websie, are you saying "just remember them all"? :P

But why? a) many websites limit you to 16 characters b) a 24 character random symbol password is pretty much the same difficulty to crack as a 24 character combination of words with symbol replacements c) no one is going to hack you, and if they do it won't involve guessing your password, it will be a data breach or an exploit most likely.

I don't need to store my passwords  or write them down. Because if I forget them, I click on the "forgot password" and I get an email to reset them. I have remember at least 5 different passwords which 15 characters long.

I don't have my gmail and school password in there for example (or steam or anything important) just a bunch of shit that I really realy can't be bothered remembering because I need them for this one specific class in school or for this oe program or one game or,.... If you use enough bullshit programms you'll have enough bullshit passwords

Ah fair enough, that would be a completely different scenario :P 

Looking at my signature are we now? Well too bad there's nothing here...

Just don't forget your spouse's birthday and your life will be ok.

If you forgot that then there's a bigger problem ahead
