Take a look at the following announcement

Note that that breach was not as severe as originally thought

Upon viewing the thread, I've noticed this:
Quote:Do not reuse your Sinisterly password.

I'm not sure If anything has changed, but measures should be Implemented whereby (obviously for security purposes) you cannot reuse old/previously-used passwords.

The breach thread that phy mentioned was made long before 2016, and thus cannot be what @MrSecurity was talking about, as long as he didn't get the date wrong, and assuming it is actually real.

We were breached 4 years ago and a partial copy of the database was circulated. An announcement was made and we forced a password reset. The number of people affected is incredibly small.

The database Krebs is referencing, is indeed from the 2014 breach. There have been no breaches since.

Pretty sure they listed a dox as a breach (which isn't).

I was about to say. There have been no more recent breaches. I genuinely forgot that even happened in 2014, since the effect ultimately turned out to be very minimal.
