Myself and 4 other people I know all happened to get their reddit accounts temporarily locked due to a "possible compromise" in the past week or so, which has never happened to any of us before. Anyone else?
- mirimir 10y agoMy reddit password failed a week ago, and I had to do an email reset. And I use a password manager.
- jimmaswell 10y agoIn that case I'm even more inclined to think it might be because of Cloudbleed.
- gooeyblob 10y agoThat would be unrelated to this. We haven't taken any action on any accounts because of this issue and have no plans to, as we (reddit.com) were unaffected.
- rand77763 10y agoHappened to me as well. If it's not related to CloudBleed, can you tell us specifically what happened? It's making me not trust Reddit.
- gooeyblob 10y agoIf anything, it should make you trust reddit more! I don't know the exact details as to why your account may have been locked, but generally it will be because we're being proactive and have some signal that your account is using a weak or reused password.
- jimmaswell 10y agoWhy was reddit on the list of affected sites, and how do you know reddit wasn't affected?
