According to this Security Pipeline article, nearly three quarters of office workers in an impromptu man-on-the-street survey were willing to give up their passwords when offered the bribe of a chocolate bar.

BoingBoing reader Joe Buck was among a number of hardened cynics who wrote in to say, "If a person on the street offers me a chocolate bar in exchange for my password, and it's a good chocolate bar, I'll happily tell him or her a password… except that it will be fake." Man, the next time some internet security journalist approaches me clutching a wad of Godiva, I sure as hell know what I'm gonna say!
