They did not. I think those are their own passwords if the user used directly the app without FB login

- seandougall 8y agoNot to discount the possibility that the article could be incorrect about this, but it makes the claim quite unambiguously: "it contains plaintext (i.e. unprotected) Facebook passwords for 22,000 users"
- traek 8y agoThey have updated the article to say > it contains plaintext (i.e. unprotected) passwords for 22,000 users and > The passwords are presumably for the “At the Pool” app rather than for the user’s Facebook account, but would put users at risk who have reused the same password across accounts.
- jrochkind1 8y agoThanks for clearing that up, didn't say that when I read it, indeed, it originally said "Facebook passwords".
