Security through obesity

Jeremy also proposed that fake hashes be added to make the hashes table arbitrarily large
Harder to steal, distribute to attack nodes, search on smaller machines
Targeted offline attacks (e.g., on just one target user account) either require all records from the hashes table or will fail for some passwords
reddit user alex_w dubbed this "security through obesity", a term accepted by Jeremy and later used more broadly by Ethan Heilman
Jeremy refers to his specific approach as "blind hashing", which is an instance of the "security through obesity" approach
