I mean, we wear computers on our faces now. Using "password" as your password just seems out of place in a world where you can wear computers on your face, doesn't it? We should know better by now. Looking at SplashData's findings, it's pretty incredible to learn that many of us don't.
The big news with this year's list is that "123456" has dethroned the perennial champion, "password." We're not sure whether that's a good sign or a bad sign, but we're leaning toward the latter.
