My password is hacker-proof

The single most common password pattern on Earth, and somehow still a surprise on every breach report.

Why it's funny (and true): "Password123" satisfies most naive complexity rules — uppercase, lowercase, a number — while being one of the first guesses in every credential-stuffing list.

The actual lesson: length beats complexity. Use a password manager and a long passphrase, and turn on 2FA before the breach, not after.
