      The issue isn’t just reuse of passwords. Only about 14,000 accounts were breached because of bad passwords. The problem is that those 14k accounts allowed bad actors to access the personal information of nearly 7 million people.

        Don’t print your SSN and give it to your inlaws or your grandma. Or your credit card info or anything else.
