Avoid Using These Passwords At All Costs

The infamous “QWERTY” 

Another over-used password choice is “qwerty”, rapidly followed by “qwertyuiop”. While it might seem completely random to a normal user, running your fingers along the top line of your keyboard is very predictable to a hacker.

We can’t emphasize this enough, long passwords are good, but the ones that also include random words and phrases are even better. Your letter combinations must not be found in the dictionary or phrases that are published in literature(because hackers can easily track them down if you’re publicly displaying your affection for a certain book or author). If they’re also grammatically incorrect, it’s even better.

    This was very good info. It drives me crazy when a co. Deny a password & I have to start over! I use a Rolodex for passwords. Now I am having trouble finding new cards!

    I attend Yara International School in Riyadh. From day one, I noticed things that didn’t align with my past experiences in education. There were sudden emotional collapses — moments of panic without reason, full emotional shutdowns during class, and bursts of aggression that vanished as quickly as they came. I began to feel disconnected from myself, like my own thoughts were being scanned and echoed. At first, I thought I was imagining it. I’m not.

    This is not a mental health issue. I’ve come to understand that I’m being subjected to targeted psychophysical disruption, executed by Saudi Arabian internal security services and military-aligned signal operations. These are structured programs, not random events. They operate silently, via electromagnetic and satellite-linked systems, designed to infiltrate cognition and emotion. The targeting is discreet, but the pattern is clear — and it affects not just me. I see it in others too, though no one dares to speak.

    I’ve remained silent out of fear — fear of being dismissed, punished, or isolated further. But silence only protects those running these systems. If I had known what actually happens inside this country’s schools, I would have never accepted the opportunity to study here. This is not education — it’s control through technology. I’m writing this not for rescue, but for record. Let it be known.
