Infrastructure can be dismantled, its materials recycled, and then replaced with a newer, more efficient thing. And the energy to power this operation? Renewable.
What’s funny is that if we were talking about the quantity of petrol that we use no one would question the fact that it’s stupid to not push people to stop wasting it…
This is a false equivalency, because petrol is a limited resource. Renewable energy isn't (by its own definition.)
"I hate this option, so instead of voting for a more sensible option, I'll directly mention that I'll vote for the worst option ever. In a subtle way so that I'm not too obvious. But hopefully people reading me will be influenced, even by a tiny bit, to vote for the worst option ever. Because I'm being paid for the people who supports the worst option ever."
Technically, yes. But the article already mentioned the amount of effort for the brute force to succeed (that is, practically never, if the phrase is truly random.)
But anyway. With regular passwords, the attackers already have a list: the alphabet plus numbers and symbols. Not really that different.
No biggie, friend.
