> T-Mobile's assertion that no password information was stolen - and later clarification that encrypted passwords were exposed
Call me skeptical considering they said 4 months ago that they store part of their passwords in plain text: https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/7xdeby/t-mobile-stores-part-of-customers-passwords-in-plaintext-says-it-has-amazingly-good-security https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/7xdeby/t-mobile-s...
- Crosseye_Jack 8y agoThat was T-Mobile Austria and at the time T-Mobile USA (and iirc a couple other T-Mobile subsidiaries) said they used a different customer account system than T-Mobile Austria and handle account passwords differently. (T-Mobile Austria has since figured out that storing this is a bad idea and promised to change how they do it. Dunno what they have done as I'm not a customer of them nor live in Austria, I just remember the the shitstorm on twitter about it.)
