Dropbox was hacked 68 million accounts logins and passwords have been compromised

Dropbox hack leads to dumping of 68m user passwords on the internet
They used what is now known to be a crap algorithm to encrypt the passwords.

This needs to be reiterated. If you are using the same password across multiple sites it's time to stop it. Your problem isn't someone guessing your secure password it's companies like this getting hacked and your password getting cracked and from there would be thieves take those login credentials to every major website they can before you even find out the hack happened.

In 2005 the SHA-1 algorithm Dropbox was using to encrypt half the user data from this breach in 2012 when this hack happened was suggested to be inadequate yet they were still using it.

Thank God I use different passwords for different accounts.

Rely on online storage solutions brehs.

All my storage will always be local. Only non critical things can be stored on servers like game saves and shyt.
