2014: The Year of the MEGA Data Breach
Personal info has been hacked yet again. This is getting ridiculous. Just this week it was announced that a hacker claims to have 7 Million Dropbox Passwords. It seems there is nothing that even approaches security online anymore. Hardly a week goes by without news of a fresh breach. I change my passwords frequently, but this isn't enough. Three of the passwords I have changed in the past two months, Dropbox included, have had to be changed a second time because of hacks of the companies or institutions involved.

Home Depot, Target, Dropbox, Chase Morgan, AOL, eBay, Adobe, UPS, the list goes on and on. Where does it all end? Is anybody safe?
