Fellow tooters, is it a really dumb idea to use the same password on other instances or does it matter?
Well that is a total spanner in the works of my mission to become @Ciara everywhere
@Ciara @Ciara how come?
@Messgorough slow imagination, shite memory, must ration use of both
@Messgorough although if this thing keeps up I guess I could shut down my twitter and reuse that password :joy:
@Ciara That would certainly be the way going forward IMO.
@Messgorough circular economy for social networks 😀
@Gargron you are surely the person to answer this definitively :joy:
@Ciara @Gargron Just imagine one of the instances saves your password in plaintext... :wink:
@unextro @Gargron to refine my original question is that something they could do?
@Ciara it's as bad an idea as using the same email/password combo to sign up for anything else
@parataxis you'll have to trust both instances - doubling the attack surface
@Ciara why would it even matter you think?
@PorFavorDama some other Ciara could come and steal my hard won @Ciara
@Ciara How so? I mean unless you share it with someone else or some other hacker is into your acc then I dont think it would even happen. At least not yet. 😂
@PorFavorDama other hacker? Is there something you've been meaning to tell me?
@Ciara Of course not. I was just telling you the possibilities. :sweat_smile:
@PorFavorDama Nevertheless you convinced me to turn on TFA :joy: :pray_tone4:
