^Indeed it was hacked. It was recent news recently but seems just for a few days. Somehow they've managed damage control and not much further discussion about it. This one though may be more damaging and or for future mischief.
The problem with all these 'so called' required membership is it really isn't necessary but we've become complacent and its now the norm.
All of this IT stuff is above my head but ironically know of a few individuals way up in the career ladder in regards to related security. One with a particular largest banking / ins. company and another associated with Fed. govt. acronym you would not want knocking on your door. The first one mentioned shares some scary situations and what we're all up against. The other individual is zip tight on any discussion.
Boggles the mind to see that every individual, form a newborn to senior who may not even know what a computer is, that their life is affected by it.
Now for the social media sites, those are becoming way more intrusive, even to those who've never heard of them. Truly crazy. Say for example your teenage kid loves prancing around the house, takes vids / pics and post them. Or, perhaps visiting a friends house, innocently taking and posting more pics. Theirs face recognition, and all the coding that nails down who those other individuals are in the image and where they were.
