Within the next 10 years or so I am sure you will see many more solar powered homes.
That's what they said 10 years ago. Just sayin...
As I look through my window right now, I can see 16 homes.
6 of those have got solar panels on their roofs generating electricity (2 have also got solar water heating).
10 years ago none of them had any solar.
Just sayin'...

> it was apparently 20%
I don't know about you, but I find that worrisome.
Not worriesome, because there is zero data to confirm whether those passwords were anything like valid or not, thus no conclusions can be drawn whatsoever other than 20% of people figured out how to get a free bar of chocolate.
Nothing more, nothing less.
Too lazy to google, but I seem to recall something in the last months about a similar thing, where people were offered a bar of chocolate or something in exchange for their password.
First, it was over 2 years ago.
Second it was apparently 20% of people gave their passwords in exchange for chocolate.

However, the key thing is - the survey had absolutely zero way of confirming whether the passwords were genuine or not.
You know what? Some random in the street offers me a bar of chocolate in exchange for my password, I'll gladly trade; I end up with a free bar of chocolate, they end up with a garbage string of characters which isn't my password to anything at all. Seems I would be included in that 20%, but my security would have remained uncompromised and I'd be better off to the tune of 1 bar of chocolate.
which all just goes to show that the survey was crap, the results equally so.
That const doesn't do what you think it does.
It never does.
