Mexico is developing a cellphone app that will allow migrants to warn relatives and consulates if they think they are about to be detained by U.S. immigration officials.
If you’re talking about have I been pwned, that site is actually legit. They have an API that compares hashes and stuff. I hope this app is legit too, it could save millions of people.
It actually requests your password (vs email for HaveIBeenPwned) and checks it against rainbow tables. It doesn’t ask for other identifying information, so it’s okay, but feels super sketchy.
HIBP can check passwords. Some password managers integrate with it, like Bitwarden. Troy Hunt, the person behind HIBP works at Microsoft is a Microsoft MVP.
This sounds a lot like that website where you can enter your password to check if it has been compromised.
i don’t think so
they see what’s coming and they want to protect people. mexico is getting more civilized while u.s. is sinking into its crueler depths
