It's pretty far down but 4815162342 (410 btw) is seemingly the first random one that I haven't been able to make sense of I've tried it as the alphabet, I've tried it on the number pad, can someone explain what this is, or is it just a really unfortunately common number? I would've thought this was a decent password...
They're the numbers from Lost
Thanks, that was a popular show I never got into.
Oddly enough I did watch the show, but my first thought on seeing them in your comment was that it might be a US phone number, 481 516 2342.
Jenny's number was more commonly used than this

I like that you went to the trouble of teying to decipher it, and then posted it here, rather than just googling it lol.
It makes the comment section more interesting : )
Yeah.... I also scrolled down the list far enough to find one I didn't recognize XD XD XD
Don't blame me, I was at work, trying very hard to not work.
funnily enough, I still have that as the password for some random thing I now own for 10+ years and never bothered to change
but why though
