Recently, Ars Technica reported about a leak by “D33ds Company” of more than 450.000 plain-text accounts from a Yahoo service, which is suspected to be Yahoo Voices.
Since all the accounts are in plain-text, anyone with an account present in the leak which also has the same password on other sites (e-mail, Facebook, Twitter, etc), should assume that someone has accessed their account.

I gathered some quick statistics on the passwords (with Pipal):
Total entries = 442773 Total unique entries = 342478 Top 10 passwords 123456 = 1666 (0.38%) password = 780 (0.18%) welcome = 436 (0.1%) ninja = 333 (0.08%) abc123 = 250 (0.06%) 123456789 = 222 (0.05%) 12345678 = 208 (0.05%) sunshine = 205 (0.05%) princess = 202 (0.05%) qwerty = 172 (0.04%) Top 10 base words password = 1373 (0.31%) welcome = 534 (0.12%) qwerty = 464 (0.1%) monkey = 430 (0.1%) jesus = 429 (0.1%) love = 421 (0.1%) money = 407 (0.09%) freedom = 385 (0.09%) ninja = 380 (0.09%) writer = 367 (0.08%)
Full statistics available on Pastebin.
I also checked the frequency of the various domains used for e-mail addresses:

While I think it’s hard to overestimate how stupid people can be, one thing to keep in mind when looking at statistics on large numbers of passwords like this is that sometimes people intentionally use stupid passwords. I do it myself sometimes.
Why? Because you need a throwaway account. I do this sometimes if I some web site requires me to register just to do something (like, say, comment on a blog…). I don’t want to use a password that I use somewhere else for exactly this reason: it has a relatively high risk of being compromised, or I don’t trust the service where I’m signing up anyway. But I don’t want to use a random password either, in case I forget.
So for situations where I really couldn’t care less if someone compromised my account, I may use a really, really easy password, so that I will remember it, and I know that there would be no consequences of it being stolen.
Now I doubt most people put that much thought into it, but a lot of people sign up for throwaway email addresses on a regular basis, and simply don’t care because there’s nothing at risk.
It’s definitely a good idea to use a (few) throwaway account(s), the problem is that most people don’t. The biggest problem is password re-use (especially when combined with plain-text passwords), and looking at the dumps (and results from previous hacks), there clearly are people signing up with their real (company or private) e-mails, using passwords they also use for their e-mail/facebook, etc.. THAT’s bad.
