    Only one thing to do… Start over fresh.

    I just did this a few months ago, and it feels really good to have a proper set-up now, with privacy respecting companies all around.

      I’m in the process of doing that. It’s not a quick and easy process. I was so lazy with password, that I would just use a variation of 3 different passwords for everything because that’s all I could remember. Then I had a password exposed, so I decided to change all my passwords to unique passwords and use a password manager. I was shocked to see that I had 126 passwords saved in my browser. That took a long time to go through and change the email and passwords to everything.
