    Honestly a lot actually has changed in that time.

    So much info has leaked that it’s a lot easier to phish users than ever. There are dumps of usernames and passwords, so you can know several websites they use as starting points for fraud.

    Password reuse and credentials stuffing are also common now, which means if teens reuse passwords you can get into manu of their accounts.
