Yeah ok I know it's for security, but Ffs! I couldn't log in, so I tried password reset but it wouldn't send the password to my registered email address, kept saying it wasn't valid, so I've had to create a new email address and therefore a new user name just to get my Sunday morning fix of aibu! Gggrrr! RIP ilovechips and hello happyringo...

It is an actual known breach.

A sample of what was take was posted on the surface web.

Anyone who thinks they don't have every single user, or that the information has not already been posted on the dark web, is deluded.

At least we know it has happened on MN (because someone tipped us off by using Justine's account, then a further message yesterday). Other websites may not be so lucky.

Got an email this morning. Took about 3 minutes to reset.
