OMD this is perfect! I have issues with these questions since the only people I know who wish to harm me are people who know the freaking answers to these questions!
Rhys Taylor Malcom Turnbull is the current prime minister of Australia. He belongs to the party that can be compared to the US republicans, and has just as retarded policies.
OK, so next time I try to attack someone’s account through their security questions, I’ll just go ahead and enter the MD5 hash of the most common answers to those questions, as well as the plaintext guesses.
