I avoid cloud storage whenever I can, but I also know places I deal put my data on them. The cloud sounded like a bad idea when I first heard of it for just this reason.

Another MEGA breach of many computer users data that could impact Apple device users security by exposing their emails, addresses, passwords, etc., due to stolen data from a breach at an apparently insecure cross-platform data aggregator. This security breach impacts ALL PLATFORMS, not just Apple. Use the link to learn if you have a problem and need to change your passwords. Apple users should use the built in password generator and Keychain system to manage passwords which recalls your passwords for you across all your Apple devices. . . It generates a very complex passcode for each site. PING!
Apple and All Platform Security Ping!
If you want on or off the Mac Ping List, Freepmail me.

Saw this yesterday at https://techstartups.com/2019/01/18/hackers-strike-again-773-million-emails-21-million-passwords-leaked-in-mother-of-all-breaches-are-you-affected and should have told you. Found some pwords via
https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords that appeared elsewhere on the Internet, though that does not mean they are connected to your email, some which I also found had been used. took corrective action on one .
The breach was first reported by Troy Hunt, the security researcher who runs the site Have I Been Pwned (HIBP), where you can check if your email has been compromised in a data breach. In his blog, Hunt says a large file of 12,000 separate files and 87GB of data had been uploaded to MEGA, a popular cloud service. The data was then posted to a popular hacking forum and appears to be an amalgamation of over 2,000 databases. The troubling thing is the databases contain dehashed passwords, which means the methods used to scramble those passwords into unreadable strings has been cracked, fully exposing the passwords.
