I don’t know, it seems everywhere I look on the World Wide Web I see stupidity, whether it be dancing monkeys to ignorant people surfing.

Like that girl in New Zealand who went to police that her Bebo account was hacked. That does suck, but the funny thing is they don’t mention how it happened. Not until the very end where the reporter mentions “and never give your password out to anyone”. Right there that indicates that the girl did in fact give her password out. Which is just stupid.

I’m sorry, but there is no valid reason why your personal password needs to be shared with someone over the internet or real life. If you do, you’re an idiot.

The reasons people give are funny. “I need to investigate your account”, “The database has corrupted”, “Flying ponies need it” are all examples. Obviously the third is face, but guess what - so are the rest!

I repeat it,  there is never ever ever ever any reason to give your password to another person at all. If you do, you’re an idiot.

Do you honestly think the people who designed the system put the horrible flaw in there that to investigate a user you need access to their password? If anyone did design such a system they deserve to be shot, as that is the dumbest idea ever (yes, even dumber than a certain celeb).

I guess the only example I can give is this. The police need to investigate you, and they need to check your banking records. They can access this information, as can the bank staff even though your PIN number is never asked for. Your PIN is private and you don’t have to give it out to the bank or police at all.

It’s just stupid.
