If that's right then I can only imagine the terrible handling of this situation where a lot of folks maybe haven't even received a mail about the breach.
Well, I've received Rob's mail (I think someone has posted bits of that mail here in this thread) saying that some terrible compromise has happened. Though there was no clear mentioning of a security breach, it was quite understandable that they're hacked.
But didn't paid any attention as I don't have any domains with them from a long time.
Some notable points so far:
- Hacker group Anonymous performed the hack named 'Operation Jane' and uploaded 180 GB of user data to torrent sites
- The hacking was performed because of their Right wing support approach and had something to do with The Texas Abortion Law.
- Apparently, website security was so low on Epik’s priorities that hacking it was easy as running a line of code.
