I made an account on name.com 5 days ago. Anybody know when the breach happened?

  It was back in April, in association with an attack on Linode [1]. See this HN comment by RoboTeddy from yesterday for a great summary of the group's story about these attacks [2]. However, Name.com has not disclosed much information. I don't know if they were aware of the attack until the group released their story yesterday. The systems could have still been compromised.
