    Question Foreign Hack?

    Is the foreign hack for real and everything, google,Hotmail etc, passwords and usernames are to be changed asap?

    If this isn't the right spot please relocate it.

    The news is in lots of places. Here's one http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/...b016f378942950
    I'm not overly excited yet. If the breach was just one email service, I'd be very on board. But the story lists several providers. Email passwords for several providers are not stored in one place. This smells funny to me...

    The multiple security breaches weren't the result of computer hackers breaking into Microsoft's computer servers where the e-mail passwords and other account information is stored. Rather, the breach was the result of a phishing scam.
