1.9million Adobe users used "123456" as their cloud password!

At least they can count, most of the rest probably used their birthday or name. :p

Not really surprising as the average user doesn't consider password security as an essential and still only uses passwords that are easy to remember. They only learn to use something sensible when it's too late.
 
But then how many signed up to CC as a chore, aiming never to use it again...? I'd wager a large proportion, I'm thinking even over half, sign up just a generic password to get the trial software. I know I have several accounts with them I can't remember the email address or password used.

It's not like here, email or Facebook where most people will actually be using the account. With that in mind the massive use of 123456 and 123456789 makes perfect sense. :p
