Tech brand ratings by negative use in passwords
Want to see which major tech brands people hate the most? Below are some big tech businesses and products ranked by how often people use their name with "sucks" as their password for a site or service.
This sampling is taken from a very specific data set: passwords exposed via breach, uploaded to Have I Been Pwned?, and made up of only lower-case letters. But it still provides an interesting glimpse into user opinions.
Of the sites mentioned below, LinkedIn by far garnered the most vitriol. I thought Comcast would've take that honor. IE and Edge predictably lead the web browser category, and Hotmail beats out Gmail and Yahoo! Mail, making Microsoft one of the more disliked companies on this list. (It must be noted that this list only reflects negative opinions, not positive ones.)
