You can really just set your keys to random values and have everything work? Don't they have to be... you know... keys? Consisting of a public and private key in a mathematical relationship?

Or are you suggesting we all just change our passwords?

It's good to have unique password for each login (Posting, Active & Owner).   Rotating them at different times is extra security(but at the very least good to change them now once after the hack)
