Ouch. It's actually not surprising how many companies store plaintext passwords. It's a dirty little secret.
Crucial details missing: how many (all?) users affected? When did the breach occur and how long did it take them to notice? How did they notice? What is this crap about "continually monitoring" the internet when they can't even secure their own servers?
- tdavis 18y agoI guess I am easily surprised; each case of "omg our plaintext passwords were stolen" completely baffles me.
- ScottWhigham 18y agoWait - I missed that in the original post. Where does it say that they stored unencrypted passwords? Maybe it does and I missed it (it is 4:00AM on a Saturday lol)
