I used a 64 charcters unique password, so i don't think the bcrypt hash of it would be of any use for them.

I take it you've never had to log into a printer with an AD account before?

Yeah, I went out to 32 characters once. Until I needed to work on a printer.

The first time I got a password manager I set everything I could to 128. Can’t believe how many sites allowed me to do that… the first time I had to actually type one out I learned my lesson.
