Sure, sometimes we get lazy about changing our passwords. But if you're sticking with superobvious ones, you're just asking to be hacked. Since 2011, a company called SplashData has compiled a list of the most common passwords, and the ones from 2014 are no less cringeworthy than the ones from years before. (The top two were unchanged from 2013.)
