Comment on 23andMe tells victims it's their fault that their data was breached | TechCrunch

I think most internet users are straight up smooth brained, i have to pull my wife’s hair to get her to not use my first name twice and the year we were married as a password and even then I only succeed 30% of the time, and she had the nerve to bitch and moan when her Walmart account got hacked, she’s just lucky she didn’t have the cc attached to it.

And she makes 3 times as much as I do, there is no helping people.

These people remind me of my old roommate who “just wanted to live in a neighborhood where you don’t have to lock your doors.”

We lived kind of in the fucking woods outside of town, and some of our nearest neighbors had a fucking meth lab on their property.

I literally told him you can’t fucking will that want into reality, man.

You can’t just choose to leave your doors unlocked hoping that this will turn out to be that neighborhood.

I eventually moved the fuck out because I can’t deal with that kind of hippie dippie bullshit. Life isn’t The Secret.

  I have friends that occasionally bitch about the way things are but refuse to engage with whatever systems are set up to help solve whatever given problem they have. “it shouldn’t be like that! It should work like X”
  
  Well, it doesn’t. We can try to change things for the better but refusal to engage with the current system isn’t an excuse for why your life is shit.

    The bootlickers really come out of the woodwork here to suck on corporate boot.

    I would definitely want my door locked for that.

Lately I try to get people to use Chrome’s built-it password manager. It’s simple and it works across platforms.

  I get that people aren’t a fan of Google, and I’m not either, but this is a reasonable option that would be better than what the vast majority of people are doing now…

    That’s what I’m getting at. It’s an upgrade for most users and certainly novices. I thought I was being cleaver with a password manager and they got hacked twice (you know who).

  Bitwarden is simple, works across platforms, is open source, and isn’t trusting your data to a company who *checks notes entire business model is based on sucking up as much data as possible to use for ad-targeting.
  
  I’ll trust the company whose business model isn’t built on data-harvesting, thanks.

    You and I can choose our tools as the best for our use case and for the good of the internet in general, but our non-tech friends can’t.
    
    I convinced a friend to use KeePass, but he wouldn’t spend the time to learn it. I now tell him and others like him to just use Chrome’s suggested password.
