I take things a step further -- I have no idea what my password is on sites like HN or reddit. If the cookie is ever gone, my account is gone.

I don't like the idea of identity permanence.

Instead of shitty passwords though, why not use something like 1Password to store the logins? I use that (or an old fashioned piece of paper in a secure location) for meaningful security tokens.




Yeah, I actually deliberately make new accounts on reddit and HN every couple of months
