A sweet deal for your passwords? 12 Mar 2007
Following last month's newsletter on password security, we were pointed to an old BBC News article entitled "Passwords revealed by sweet deal" (Thanks Steve!).
The article reports that "More than 70% of people would reveal their computer password in exchange for a bar of chocolate" and "34% of respondents volunteered their password when asked without even needing to be bribed".
Almost all of those questioned, said they were fed up with passwords and would like a better way to login.
