    I got hacked. My browser got copied with all stored passwords. Which were almost all the same, for about 20 years. And my payment info. Purchases were made, accounts were used to spread malware through purchased ads. Accounts were banned. In the end I managed to get most of my money back, I ended up with a loss of only 30 euros.

    I never store passwords in my browser anymore, I never click “remember me” or “stay logged in”, I use 2FA when possible and I use a password manager with randomly generated long passwords.
