That is a strange attitude... "No way to stay 100% safe so I'm not even gonna try to do anything at all". Might aswell post all your information all over the internet.
I believe nobody cares if someone's account gets hacked, they know what they're doing, it's just the illogicality of this attitude.
To be totally and utterly honest, IceyJ's attitude is comparable to a child who doesn't have a problem with eating their vegetables unless told to by their parents.
I disagree with you here and find your comment a little offensives to the simmer be honest.
I just find it rather abnormal to be so defensive on refusing to change your password because of the aforementioned "No way to stay 100% safe so I'm not even gonna try to do anything at all" mentality.
True. But at the end of the day it falls to the individual. And if they feel secure enough with their password, and feel safe keeping it. Then no reason to try to convince them other wise.
That's the thing. They shouldn't feel secure enough as they've been getting the two factor authentication requests. That's what's mind blowing and so illogical. Why would anyone feel secure about a password that they know has been compromised?!
That's what those of us going "what?!" to iceyj have been trying to do: do our due diligence as good people to convince iceyj that they should not feel secure about their current password.
Edit: but it's like horses and water. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink it.
I agree with everything you are saying. And yeah, their reaction is leaving me scratching my head. But in the long run it's their prerogative. I know once I read what was happening I did the 2 step verification and removed my payment info. But Luckily I haven't gotten any log ins outside of me on my pc. Hopefully no one else will have their accounts hacked.
