Yes, these are all real passwords that I have used in the past. I do maintain a list of passwords that I will never use again, some of which merely expired, some of which have been leaked or hacked.
I haven't reused a password in more than a decade, nor have I used a Password Generator to create passwords for me. I've never had issues coming up with new passwords, only remembering my existing passwords (which is why I keep them all in a secure bank, even the retired ones).
Leave a comment or continue reading: Part 2, more lists, or security musings.
