And this is why we as techies should push and push for all major web service providers to support some form of 2 factor authentication. A bad password + 2fa is still more secure than a secure password without 2fa.

Unclear if simply from previous lists which have been checked against the above services for password reuse

amazon, that's new.

the rest everyone already know better and i hope nobody has an active credit card associated with, but only prepaid/temp ones.

but amazon, that's scary.

If only 13k accounts are listed, that means they didn't directly crack one of these services. They probably got a list of emails and passwords from a smaller site, tried them out on other services, and posted the ones that worked. So the moral is: don't reuse passwords, especially on sites that have your credit card info!
