Putting your email in that site to check for compromising events is pretty much harmless. Do you get a lot of spam? That means that your email has already been sold and is probably already a member of dozens of email lists that get passed around. But if your address, password hints, full name, date of birth, geolocation and other things have been leaked out, thats important information to knowYes, this is true. And the LAST thing anyone should be doing at this point is putting ANY information into a website out there that is asking you to see if your information has been compromised, by YOU PUTTING INFORMATION INTO IT. I don't care HOW "SECURE" they claim their servers to be, or their motives. Are people this daft?!?
The more websites that people type their information into, the greater the chances are that their information will be breached. Oi vei!!!
