Hacking incident

[redelephants]

Was any of our passwords and/or stored messages compromised during the recent attack on satelliteguys?

Okay guess I'm not the only one. It wouldn't let me log in yesterday and I thought it was just my phone acting up. Did we really get hacked?

I was wondering why no one was discussing what happened last night after all this time.
It was driving me crazy as I was in the middle of some PM's with Matt and could not get on for hours.
After it finally came back up, it was like nothing ever happened.
Am I the only one that was curious during the entire process?

Shouldn't this info be pinned to all forums on sat guys

Personally, I would change my passwords to a more secure password. If you share username/email/passwords on this site with other sites, I would change those as well.

These two sites will help you come up with strong passwords, particularly the grc site :-

I use this ps/wrd only on sites that aren't necessary for my life. Just those I visit for the fun of it.

Thought for sure this thread would have been merged by now.Really doesn't belong in the dish forum.

Agreed. Although, the originating thread has been posted several times...and has more hits than this one.

No passwords or emails or any private information was taken.
