Hi, i&#x27;m the developer. :)<p>One point to add for misunderstandings is that listing animal names and passwords mostly protects you from keyloggers.<p>Even someone knows your master-key and all the details you use, it should monitor what you copy-pasted. Otherwise try&#x2F;fail would be notified on limited environments if the attacker is not lucky enough.

So instead of storing passwords it has a repeatable process for generating hashed passwords for a given host+account+port+master key?<p>One problem I see is that your favorite animal might result in a password that isn&#x27;t allowed for a given site. But I assume the paranoid target user would never use such a site.

I like this. It&#x27;s similar in nature to what I&#x27;m looking to do with blot.pw (more information at <a href="https://github.com/stuartpb/hashblot/wiki/About" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;stuartpb&#x2F;hashblot&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;About</a> )

Yeah. That looks really convenient and user-friendly &lt;&#x2F;sarcasm&gt;

I didn&#x27;t quite understand what it&#x27;s doing. Can someone explain?
