'One billion' affected by Yahoo hack

I don't even want to think about it.

Useless, without the corresponding IPs and ISP subscriber info.

>>58003305
>implying it isn't already
shit is tagged with the emails at the time of use, and logins to other sites from the same computer
retards who didn't even finish highschool have access to this shit.

AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>58003305
One day, probably not in our lifetimes, someone's going to compile everything that's been posted on the internet and make a huge archive of everything everyone's ever done online just because they can and when they do it's going to be OK just becuase it's all history by then. Everyone's going to have embarresing and possibly incriminating pictures and messages they sent made public on Ancestry on steroids from the future.

Just think about that.

>>58003268

>>58003374
Yahoo was like the 2nd most visited website in the world when she got the job. They're 6th now.

>women

>>58003305
there's probably someone right now who's secretly making an archive of all of Snapchat through a hidden backport and are gonna leak it all in like 15 years to screw up someo political campaign or create a celebrity scandal for money or something like that.

>>58003268
>passwords
So like actual passwords or password hashes?

Funny, for the past year I've been getting notifications sent to a Yahoo email account I no longer use saying that someone from China has been trying to access another Yahoo email account that I lost years ago to Chinese gold farmers.

>>58003397
Phew good thing I don't post any stupid shit

Everything gets hacked. I don't even care anymore.

>>58003472
in $_CURRENT_YEAR it's essentially the same, there are dozens of terabytes worth of rainbow tables available.

And if you're targeting an individual with a special snowflake password, you can still probably crack it. I doubt Yahoo historically used anything better than MD5.

How are they so fucking incompetent? They should get fined heavily for this.

Will their shares fall 4% now?

why is yahoo still a thing and how the fuck do they have 1 billion accounts?

>>58004977
>double accounts = double share drop
No you idiot. It's exponential. If you double the accounts then you square the share drop percentage.

teh yahoo is for fugggg :DDDD

Certainly not ours?

so what's the proper way to permanently wipe clean my yahoomail account?

I'd be much more worried about my post-newfag posts being leaked. I used to be a normie with normal tastes, now I'm a bigot and a weirdo.

Fucking hell, I used to feel bad for yahoo but they are just so careless with data. I am pretty sure this is why my yahoo email was compromised, my old facebook linked to it was also compromised and used to spam and they even made a twitter account for spamming. I am glad I switched to gmail because I had 10000 unread emails in yahoo years ago

who even has a yahoo account though? I know its relatively big in Japan but I thought it didn't really have market share anywhere.

ok so wheres the txt file of the passes

>>58010260
holdover accounts from the last decade? is yahoo japan even affected?

>>58010260
>I thought it didn't really have market share anywhere
t. little shit.
Yahoo was huge 10 years ago, and it still has a very significant chunk of the email userbase.
You not knowing it doesn't make it go away.

Google leak when?

>>58003334
all of which google has access to

as well as your name, browsing habits, personal details, etc.

MD5 was suspected to be broken in 1993 and known to be broken in 1996.

>>58010385

...hell, they probably do.

>>58003268
DON'T FORGET THE "TEN GORILLION" HACKED ACCOUNTS!!!

i don't think it actually tries to verify, it just sends you an email or text when someone changes the shit...

>>58013626
Oh like google?

>>58013861

er, no

google actually requires the verification either in the form of the email or through the mobile authenticator

>>58013910
i have 2 step auth on yahoo, and i have to get a text message with a code before it lets me sign on

>>58003374
She sucks at her job but to be fair this vulnerability goes back a fucking decade. Clearly someone in charge was ignoring the demands by their engineers to update their encryption because they didn't know shit about encryption. Which is inexcusable when you work FOR A FUCKING TECH COMPANY

Her main fault is not disclosing the hack back when they knew it in 2013. Her and everyone else that fucking knew.

what are the details on the md5 blunder?
is it salted or just plain md5?

>>58014555
plain

i used a long ass password in my yahoomail and i now have to check if it's hash is in the web. jesus christ.

>>58014655

that's pretty neat. I didn't think of doing this before.

>>58014655

I stopped using my yahoo mail account like 15 years ago. I couldn't give a fuck if it was broken into

So is there a superior email service that doesn't demand you link up with a mobile phone, has decent security, doesn't try to push other products on you and isn't Google?

Its literally too much information to adequately process. It would take thousands of people just to understand the data after organizing it.

Only large AI systems or governments could do it and their footprint would be so large it would be obvious. Corporations wouldn't bother because of the ramifications and associated costs.
