Maybe you're right that the odds that another company could be trusted are low enough not to be a distinction compared to companies I know I don't trust.

That said, I mind signing up for throwaway services less because it's easy to use a fake name/email, which is becoming less an option for the major services, who try to enforce real identities and revoke accounts without consequences.



The throw away account point sounds fair. I hadn't necessarily considered that.

I was just going off the larger number of password dumps there are out there. Most are from small companies.
