Around November in 2015 the IRC network I host was hacked due to a breach Linode had already been informed of (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10845985 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10845985) - I had a completely unique username, password, and I even had 2FA enabled. Linode support refused to work with me, advising me to "secure my 2fa device better next time". Longevity of a company like Linode clearly isn't indicative of good business practices, only that they are the cheapest option.
