1) Have you been using a shared computer? 2) Did you have a weak password? 3) Do you use same password (or a small pool of passwords) for most sites and service?

Answering yes to any of the above and you really should not be posting on HN

1) No 2) No 3) No

I rarely check my email or sign onto my Google account on any other computer.

So that means I shouldn't be posting on HN because I use a shared computer.

Are you on drugs or some kind of prescribed medication ?

I should add "Have you been accessing sensitive sites such as your Google accounts" on a shared computer." The HN reference was to distinguish if the poster's complaint was worth of a discussion or is it one of 100k+ people a day that get caught by keyloggers/phishing/social-engineering through their own stupidity (like accessing Google wallet on a shared computer)
