Comment on Mozilla’s new service tries to wipe your data off the web
Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org 9 months agoThey are talking about the password lookup: haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords
But, it’s the same deal. You have to trust they are actually doing what they say. Mozilla uses haveibeenpwned for their basic Monitor service too.

Y’know that you can see the requests your browser makes, right? Mind putting in here a screenshot of HIBP uploading your password or any complete hash of it?
Failing to provide that grants you the “talking shit out of ya ass” award.

To be fair, you can check the code they run or just use the API.
The hash is calculated locally, cut-off and then send, the server returns all hashes it found which start with your one and then you can check if yours in in the list locally.
