Remember BugMeNot? The service makes available a public database of passwords that you can use to log in to services on the Internet. Some services on the Internet require you to create a free account before their contents can be accessed in full, and while that may make sense sometimes for the service, it is often an annoyance for the user who feels pressured to register to find out if the contents are suitable or not.

Users of BugMeNot shared passwords to these services that anyone could use to access the contents the site makes available.

Update: Share Me Pass is no longer available.  We suggest you check out BugMeNot instead as it is still around.

Share Me Pass is a similar service, a BugMeNot alternative if you will, that provides you with its own public database of logins that you can use to sign in to sites on the Internet without registering an account by yourself.

The website uses a similar layout, you find the search form at the top that you can use to enter a web address to find out if the service has a login for it in its database.

share your pass

You can alternatively use one of the site suggestions that are displayed below the search form. Each site is displayed with its url and country it is hosted in. A click on a url displays the login information that you can use to sign in. The username is hidden by default and you need to click on it again to reveal it.  You can report logins as not working or as a hacked or not public username. There is however no percentage listing like you find on BugMeNot, but that was not overly reliable anyway. You can add new logins for websites as well if you want to become a contributor.

If you are using the Firefox web browser you can alternatively use the official extension for the browser which provides you with one-click access to sites that are listed in the service's database.

The two services, Share your pass and BugMeNot, are not sharing the same database so that you can try one of the services first to find a login, and if you can't find a particular site or find that no login is working, use the other service to see if it has a working username and password combination. BugMeNot has an extension as well by the way.

      Well it is a bit difficulty to distinguish between name.com domains and files for instance.

    The comments section under this very article (3 comments) is identical to the comments section found under the following article:
    https://www.ghacks.net/2023/08/15/netflix-is-testing-game-streaming-on-tvs-and-computers/

    Not sure what the issue is, but have seen this issue under some other articles recently but did not report it back then.

    With the cloud, there is no such thing as unlimited storage or privacy. Stop relying on these tech scums. Purchase your own hardware and develop your own solutions.

      This is a certified reddit cringe moment. Hilarious how the article’s author tries to dress it up like it’s anything more than a png for doing the reddit corporation’s moderation work for free (or for bribes from companies and political groups)

    With Google Chrome, it’s only been 1,500 for some time now.

    Anyone who wants to force me in such a way into buying something that I can get elsewhere for free will certainly never see a single dime from my side. I don’t even know how stupid their marketing department is to impose these limits on users instead of offering a valuable product to the paying faction. But they don’t. Even if you pay, you get something that is also available for free elsewhere.

    The algorithm has also become less and less savvy in terms of e.g. English/German translations. It used to be that the bot could sort of sense what you were trying to say and put it into different colloquialisms, which was even fun because it was like, “I know what you’re trying to say here, how about…” Now it’s in parts too stupid to translate the simplest sentences correctly, and the suggestions it makes are at times as moronic as those made by Google Translations.

    If this is a deep-learning AI that learns from users’ translations and the phrases they choose most often – which, by the way, is a valuable, moneys worthwhile contribution of every free user to this project: They invest their time and texts, thereby providing the necessary data for the AI to do the thing as nicely as they brag about it in the first place – alas, the more unprofessional users discovered the translator, the worse the language of this deep-learning bot has become, the greater the aggregate of linguistically illiterate users has become, and the worse the language of this deep-learning bot has become, as it now learns the drivel of every Tom, Dick and Harry out there, which is why I now get their Mickey Mouse language as suggestions: the inane language of people who can barely spell the alphabet, it seems.

    And as a thank you for our time and effort in helping them and their AI learn, they’ve lowered the limit from what was once 5,000 to now 1,500…? A big “fuck off” from here for that! Not a brass farthing from me for this attitude and behaviour, not in a hundred years.
