| 1280225 | 2012-06-07 05:30:00 | The hack became news after sites began reporting that information on 6.5 million passwords had been posted on a Russian hacker site, but the data appeared to be unsalted, meaning they were missing an extra layer of protection. As many as 300,000 of the stolen passwords were actually cracked and broken into, according to some reports on the Web. seattletimes.nwsource.com |

| 1280227 | 2012-06-07 06:19:00 | Mine had been leaked (It was quite a random password, doubt anybody else had it). Use this interesting wee tool: http://www.leakedin.org/ |

| 1280232 | 2012-06-07 08:02:00 | Just deleted my account. It was all gibberish anyhow, I presume that was my handy work though no idea what my motivation for doing so would be. For some reason I had listed myself as Bill Mates and as a Slave. |

Use this interesting wee tool: http://www.leakedin.org/ None of my passwords were leaked but interesting to try things like 'password' and 'abc123' Didn't think people still used such easy to guess passwords? :D |
