Quick tip for you all:
Check your Google passwords list to see what is compromised, you'll be surprised. To do this, do the following:
1- Open up Chrome
2- Click the 3 dots up in the right-hand corner (AKA Kebab).
3- Go to settings
4- On the left-hand side, Click Autofill.
5- Click on Password Manager.
If you don't already see how many compromised passwords there are, you can click on "Check Passwords".
Now, CLEAN YOUR LIST! 🙂
These passwords have been breached, meaning that those passwords have appeared in a known breach of other online services or websites. The Internet is still safe if YOU make it safe and I'm not gonna lie but people need to stop complaining if they are not taking action.
