Kanye West accidentally revealed his iPhone password and it’s just perfect
The best thing about Kanye West’s visit to see Donald Trump at the White House – and really, there’s lots to choose from – was the moment he accidentally revealed his iPhone password.
Two reasons, really, although you can probably think of more. First, that he did it so openly in front of basically the entire world’s media.
And second, the password itself. Seriously. Have a look.

Which probably explains why he likes Trump so much. Truly a meeting of intellectual equals.
Well, it’s probably 111111 now.

you: Kanye’s behavior may seem bizarre and unwise, but it’s actually a sign of his true genius

To be fair, setting your password as your IQ is an ingenious way to remember it.

If he forgets it he just has to think of his moral compass. https://t.co/2T1PNOMto8

And here’s the serious point you probably weren’t after right now.
Lots of folks will laugh at this, but I think it's a useful illustration of how security "features" fail when security decisions get offloaded to users who see them as annoying obstacles https://t.co/cyHW3hlo5B
