google's password advice is stupid.

taking the time to remember 1337speak jargoned passwords is a waste of valuable brain space: it still takes longer to bruteforce shutyourdickholeandgivemeaccess than it does to bruteforce n1ggl3$n0ggl3, because the assumption is that special characters will be used as long as they are available.

it's much easier to commit a phrase like the first one to memory than a word like the second, the only real issue is if the website has short character limits on passwords, in which case good luck.

Ok.

I hope nobody actually pasted their password in there.

Because if you hand your password out that freely, nobody will ever *need* to hack it with a desktop PC.

That's nice, but did you check it? Words are patient, especially on the internet. I don't think this site is malicious, but the chances that a site like that is are way way higher than that anyone will ever actually bruteforce your password, and I wouldn't bet my Steam account on that.

As I said, I don't think it is malicious, but encouraging people to enter their passwords anywhere than at the service it belongs to is just a bad idea imo.

I actually entered a derivative of my actual password to check. substitute each letter for any other letter, and numbers/symbols with any other symbols.
