No, I don't care enough. My point is that the tool is designed in a way to fish more passwords and the moment you "check" your password with the tool, you have to change it anyway, so there's no point in doing so in the first place.

Also, why would anyone download hundreds of gigabytes to check whether their password is compromised, if one could also just update their password?

Have you done even a tiny bit of research?

Downloading the Pwned Passwords list

The entire set of passwords is downloadable for free below with each password being represented as either a SHA-1 or an NTLM hash to protect the original value (some passwords contain personally identifiable information) followed by a count of how many times that password had been seen in the source data breaches. The list may be integrated into other systems and used to verify whether a password has previously appeared in a data breach after which a system may warn the user or even block the password outright. For suggestions on integration practices, read the Pwned Passwords launch blog post for more information.

Please download the data via the torrent link if possible! If you can't access torrents (for example, they're blocked by a corporate firewall), use the "Cloudflare" link and they'll kindly cover the bandwidth cost.

If you don't like the ad scripts move to LBRY desktop app. Odysee has a sustainable business model but if you want control of your content and you don't want to be tracked use the desktop app and Peertube isn't sustainable because it has no business model behind it expect tips but LBRY has LBC. Also LBRY Desktop app is open source and more stable than Odysee.

GNU/Linux desktop
often use: Pale Moon, Firefox ESR, and Tor Browser
sometime use: SeaMonkey, EWW (Emacs Web Wowser)

I don't use Chromium. Because, it send a lot of fingerprint to connecting server. (Fingerprint check)
Tor Browser is easy to use for privacy.
Pale Moon and SeaMonkey is forked from Firefox. But, they are lightweighter than Firefox. I use uMatrix addon for privacy and paformance.
EWW is very lightweight. But, many website are designed for Chrome and Firefox. So, EWW can not show those website.

Andoid mobile
often use: Iceraven, and Fennec F-Droid 68.12
sometimes use: Tor Browser, and Bromite

Iceraven is:

  • about:config support
  • The ability to attempt to install a much longer list of add-ons than Mozilla's Fenix version of Firefox accepts. Currently the browser queries this AMO collection Most of them will not work, because they depend on code that Mozilla is still working on writing in android-components, but you may attempt to install them. If you don't see an add-on you want, you can request it.

I have been using Firefox 68 too. Because, latest Firefox is very heavy.
Bromite setting is anti-fingerprinting.

I use Brave for the adblocker. Their new search engine seems to work alright, too. Before Brave, I used Firefox, but they're now ardent supporters of corporate censorship - I wouldn't trust them to protect my privacy.
