Search engine with millions of hacked Dutch passwords online


A search engine which shows 1.4 billion of leaked or hacked passwords is officially on line.  Of these, about 3.3 million are Dutch. The site, gotcha.pw was online for a short time but was taken down again.  It initially showed the full hacked passwords, which is illegal.  Now only the first two letters of the passwords are shown.  People can now check whether their password is no longer protected.
