Most likely, it's not a concern, as the fundamental programming of

a) avoid collisions at all costs
b) follow all traffic laws perfectly

For me, the right answer would be to change the password to a random one,

In the wake of the LinkedIn, eHarmony, and last.fm password breaches, I've
been thinking about how to make a tool that will educate users on password

It's relatively cheap to do sha1 hashing of a password and then compare it

Yeah, would be nice if the term was properly explained, rather than turning

It's more complicated than "control". The 5 declared nuclear powers at the
time the security council was devised are all permanent members, with a
