  1. Breach monitor, 2/12: the trap.

    A clean address returns {"Error":"Not found","email":null} with HTTP 200, not a 404.

    So if your script branches on the status code, every clean address reads as a hit and you page someone at 3 am for nothing.

    Branch on the body. Check for the breaches key.

    Verify it yourself, no key needed:

    curl api.xposedornot.com/v1/check-e

  2. Breach monitor, 1/12: the call.

    curl api.xposedornot.com/v1/check-e

    No key, no signup, no account. 776 breaches in the catalog to match against, and it answers in under half a second.

    Keyless matters because the gap between reading this and running it is zero.

    Run it against an address you control and check my numbers.
