    only one – “theworldinyourhand” – is virtually uncrackable. It is the number 173 most common password and would take centuries to guess using brute force.

    Not anymore. That would get moved towards the top of the rainbow table now.

        OTOH passphrases are so rarely used that other than a handful of common examples that would already be in a word list such as CorrectHorseBatteryStaple, it would be rather unlikely for anyone to bother even trying unless they are specifically trying to crack a specific password.

        So maybe don’t use a plain four word english passphrase as the admin login, but if your facebook password is ZuckerbergSucksFlaccidCock, 'tis probably fine.

      Handing the security of your accounts to… mobile carriers… always felt iffy to me.
