“Yourefired” was breached 51 times: that was Donald Trump’s password
147 people use the same password “yourefired” as was once used by Donald Trump
11 September, 2020. On Friday, various sources reported that Donald Trump once used a password “yourefired” — his famous catchphrase from a TV show “The Apprentice”.
Three Dutch hackers managed to break into Donald Trump's Twitter account just three days before the elections, on 27 October 2016, and revealed his password.
While the idea to use your famous catchphrase is as irresponsible as using the most common password “12345” — sadly, Donald Trump is not alone. According to NordPass research, 147 people use the same password as the President of the United States.
Interestingly, 1283 people use password that is not much safer — “donaldtrump”. While this password would take a month to crack, it’s already been exposed 318 times.“

My master password is over 30 characters long, so I guess I'm somewhat safe from random crackers. (NM)
