Before password composition rules, those were actually quite common, as well as passwords that were just the same as the username. Heck, it wasn't until that long ago that router manufacturers used to ship with admin/admin as the default credentials.

Hackers (1995) taught me the four most commonly used passwords are “love”, “sex”, “'secret”, and “god”.
“secret” is there. “iloveyou” has love in it.
I wonder how true that actually was in the 90s.

Yeah, now in this enlightened future, they’ve ascended to admin/password. 😶

Honestly every networking company that couldn’t be bothered to ship with randomized creds physically embedded/etched somewhere on the device should’ve probably went out of business. The cost has always been minimal and the increased security value has always been readily apparent.
