YSK if you've never run your email through a breach checker, you're probably in way more leaks than you think
Checked mine for the first time on a whim last night. 17 breaches. Should've left it alone...
I was using Surfshark Alert (comes bundled with the VPN I already had installed). Genuinely just opened the app for something else, saw the Alert tab, threw a couple of emails in out of curiosity. It surfaces the breach name and what data was exposed. Wish I'd opened it any other time of day though, because I spent another two hours changing email.
Why YSK: Most people have no clue their old passwords are floating around in leaked databases, and that's exactly how accounts get hijacked. Better to know and change them than find out the hard way.
