If the account does not hold any "vital" information, password "stratfor" could be quite a harmless password to leak, as I couldn't imagine anyone using that password for any other site/account. Although I don't know what user information is contained within the account.

Anyway, it is stupid to use such passwords and it tells something about the persons using those. Maybe they would use site names as passwords on other sites also.
