I have found that Apple thing to be incorrect. Not precise. It mostly goes by password simplicity and comparison to use at other sites and use by others. A good reminder, but not accurate.I was just notified by Apple that my password for this site and some others appeared in a data leak. Is anybody aware of this? Could it be from the AT&T hack??
This ^^^^It's probably related to password reuse. They can tell from the hashes whether the same password is being used on multiple sites. I think it has less to do with BITOG being compromised and more to do with not using a unique password for each site.
Yup, which this site has supported for a long time now.Remember to turn on 2FA for everything possible too
ATT sent me a letter stating my data had been leaked but that they did not think any financially important info had been leaked. The next day I got an alert stating my SS# as well as my email and phone number were found on the dark web associated with the ATT leak. I always have freezes on my credit reports anyway but I also placed an additional warning to verify my identity before issuing credit.I was just notified by Apple that my password for this site and some others appeared in a data leak.
