Too Long; Didn't Read

At least 12.7 billion records of data were breached in 2019 alone. Identity thieves are those who try to impersonate you to gain access to your belongings. Amazon, Dropbox, LinkedIn, Yahoo (just to name a few) of the giants have experienced breaching before (Please note that breaches could mean some and rarely all sensitive information were compromised). This implies no one is truly safe, and it is better to be cautious of your security. Introducing firebreaks - using different passwords for different accounts will minimize damages.
