    Not as interesting as it seems when compared with the original data. The needle only moved a few percent over the last two years.

    Data from the article for how fast the leaked passwords can be cracked. First percentage is 2024. Second is 2026.

    Less than a minute 45% 48% Less than an hour 59% (+14%) 60% (+12%) Less than 24 hours 67% (+8%) 68% (+8%) Less than a month 73% (+6%) 74% (+6%) Less than a year 77% (+4%) 77% (+3%) More than a year 23% 23%
