Can passwords link accounts?
 
Just wondering if passwords can cause link issues. I understand that our personal details are exposed to even the rookie customer service team in the Philippines lol. Also, literally all of my stealth's have the same password.

From my experience many years ago, yes..

That said, it's never a good idea to use the same password for anything online, especially your stealth accounts. One leaked password means all your accounts are exposed.

Use a unique password for everything.

That is really interesting.. having had many websites I never see their PW info. But I guess their databases can somehow link them? Hm

technicly it should not since no company should store your passwords at all.
It is still beter to use different passwords

Better practice is to not be lazy and use the same password all the time - use different ones and write them down

No. Each password is saved as a long random hash.

If that was the case -- there would be some serious security and privacy violations from ebay.
Even simplest sites use md5() hashes for passwords and even the same passwords appear as random digits.

I really really doubt that password could link accounts.

Passwords definitely cannot link accounts.

Didn't you read what Aspkin said?

It's better to not use the same PW.

Stop being lazy

Don't understand why you use the same Password? Make an EXCEL, and do records of every steath account.
