So today I changed 14 of my passwords. I changed all 14 of these passwords last on November 24th, 3 weeks ago. 5 are emails and the rest are services or message board accounts. I always double check that my passwords are correctly changed and correctly recorded (written on a slip of paper). 4 of those 14 double checked and verified passwords did not work. Only one of those did I use on my phone because I had no choice, obviously that was one of the 4 that were changed by hackers on my phone. I can guarantee that nobody else on the entire planet has held this slip of paper in their hands in the 3 weeks since I wrote the passwords on it. Now, 14 new passwords, new slip of paper. Still, that one password I could only use through my phone. Let's see what happens.
 Quoting: Beyond


I accidentally compromised the security of my passwords two days ago through a period of 35 minutes. If someone wanted they could have accessed the paper with my passwords on them. I am going to be an optimist about this and give the people around me the benefit of the doubt and believe that the security wasn't compromised. One way or the other I am going to know when I change them once again soon.

I am not perfect like everyone else and am prone to make mistakes. I can confidently say though this was a rare occurence. Last time there was an opportune moment for someone to see my password paper was over seven weeks ago.

Stay safe and protect yourself, keep the people you love safe and protect them with all you got.
