> To protect your privacy and security, the data that you enter in the search field is hashed, and we use only this hash to perform a search in our database. We do not collect entered emails or passwords, nothing is logged when you perform a leak check. Anyone else skeptical of this claim or am I just overly paranoid?

Indeed. Seems super shady. The bottom of the article they mention it. Really though don't enter your password anywhere they shouldn't go.

I use randomly generated passwords so the chance of any of them appearing in that list are astronomically small anyway.

You could just get the file (100 GB) and rg it yourself, or use Bitwarden, which has a handy little `Check Compromised` button next to password fields.

Compile all [these](https://wiki.skullsecurity.org/Passwords) plus some word lists, and you'll be in the same ball park. Also, show SkullSecurity some love for hosting comprehensive learning resources on his own dime at [patreon](https://www.patreon.com/iagox86)
