Security Weekly Productions’ Post

I'm pretty sure the Rockyou2024.txt file doesn't have 10 billion passwords in it. In fact, after poking around at this monster 145GB text file for a few hours, I didn't come across a single thing that looked like a password. The original Rockyou.txt leak was 133MB of plaintext passwords, one password per line. This file had nearly a gigabyte of unprintable characters alone. I share more details and some screenshots in this Mastodon thread, here: https://lnkd.in/enC6v6gd
