If I did highly secure work (which I don’t), I’d set up a few honeypot machines and input my “secure credentials” (with a bogus password) into that repeatedly.

Yeah, inputing "secure credentials" traceable directly to you with what you'd hope is a bogus password is a very bad idea, especially if you're doing highly secure work.

They're linking to the original source of the news, which literally names "the sites".
