But a strong password doesn't help you with phishing attacks and such attacks. It really only protects you against database breaches and direct password Bruteforce.

Reusing a password doesn't destroy the whole security aspect you get from a strong password like the meme implies. Just some of it.

Of course you should both not reuse passwords and use strong passwords

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
