5 Million Gmail Passwords Leaked (Lifehacker)


Recommended Posts

Two step verification is your friend, folks!

The only reason I stopped using it is because it sucks for those of us who ROM Android devices, but I need to re-enable it.

How the hell do you change your Google password from an Android phone? Do you actually have to remove and re-add the account?

Easiest way is through your browser by logging into Gmail, if you only have your phone's browser kick it into desktop mode.

Seems like there are a lot of people who would have a paypal account linked to their gmail and the same password in both.

Bank..

I have no doubt you're correct, but it's for this exact reason that I have never and will never use the same password for both. My Paypal is actually unique to every other password I use anywhere else. Makes it very easy to remember.
