Avoid Using These Passwords At All Costs

Common phrases 

Studies have shown that among common words or phrases used in passwords, in the top 10 were words like “picture1”, “iloveyou”, and “sunshine”. Also, try avoiding common words with common substitutions, like “January” or “oct0ber”.

While you’re not the only one who might be tempted to display your affection for someone in a password, try not to. If you want to use a phrase as a password, make sure to capitalize the first letter of each new word, which will make it easier for you to remember, but it will still be strong enough. Or, you can try adding an exclamation mark or a question mark at the end of your password.

    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.
