    or just use a proper wordlist (for example for denmark and general purpose) instead of checking for a single password (no wordlists are not illegal, just some usecases for them are)

    I could've used a wordlist in the first check but I decided to two different ways of solving it, even though it's **really* slow. I also tried with itertools.permutations and using multiprocessing but it wasn't really faster at getting the permutations. If you want to try yourself you can edit the first check by downloading, for example, a wordlist of English words and make a wordlist bruteforce just like the second check - that's what I did to actually get the string.*

    Yes, with a grain of salt. Wikibooks is the corpus which explains the skew towards math and programming. The dictionary file I used was https://github.com/kkrypt0nn/Wordlists/blob/master/languages/norwegian.txt which could explain the inclusion of any Nynorsk.

    Yes, that's a great point. I used the entirety of the Czech Wikibooks database as the corpus and a wordlist file from https://github.com/kkrypt0nn/Wordlists/blob/master/languages/czech.txt

    Looking at the source code, nothing. Looking at the local storage, nothing. Looking at the cookies, nothing. I decided to run gobuster on the website with a wordlist. Guess what kind of file was detected... robots.txt, of course......

    You can just look on GitHub for some wordlist collections. Here’s a good one that I found. But I would recommend you that you look into tools to create custom wordlists. I use cupp or the Mentalist. Hope this helps.
