I'm surprised this hasn't been brought up from what I can see.
Adobe had an email/password breach that may be amongst the worst in the history of the internet. Adobe first said 3 million passwords were exposed and then 38 million. Naked Security claims the number is closer to 150 million. You can check to see if your email is on the list at https://lastpass.com/adobe/. Very pathetic as Adobe is moving to the cloud and apparently invested nothing in their security as their encryption was apparently very poor.
Yes, true. Some problems with Credit Card payments for Creative Cloud too. They have, however, offered all of their CC customers one year of free credit and identity monitoring. If you are an Adobe CC customer you should have already been notified by mail.
Frank. Unfortunately I am one of the people that was offered the one year of free monitoring. However since they are only acknowledging 38 million accounts were compromised, there are millions of accounts that were not offered this option.
I have not been notified, and when I put my email address in it said I was compromised.. So a change in password and hopefully all good. Thank you @chriswang thank you for posting this.
No notification to me either and my email had been compromised. Hoping password change sorts it. Bit worrying as this seems to have originally happened in July and its now November, unless I misread it!!
It messed up my lightroom and photoshop elements settings, broke my lightroom to flickr connection and wiped out comments on my flickr. I 'was' about to get CC but not now.
Tweets ahoy!
