C0D4669026yGot to love mass list makers....
thankfully it’s not a new breach but a bunch of old ones. -
CatMDV10466yI feel sites like haveibeenpawnd is exactly the kind of site that would collect and distribute mass lists like this. I mean who in their right mind would put their email/password/card no on a website just to see if it is on some hacker database? Wouldn't just doing that put you on a database if it isn't already?

Marl3x26766y@CatMDV You only input your mail and you dont have to if you don't want. I trust them and have on multiple occasions checked my main mail address and so far it has not been leaked.
-
@CatMDV If you do the password search, it only sends the first few bytes of the SHA hash to the site. https://troyhunt.com/ive-just-launc...
If you don't trust the JS, you can directly use the API. -
Parzi86636y@CatMDV It only sends the SHA digest short (the truncated one, like Git* uses) of what you put in, not the entire damn thing in the clear.
-
Parzi86636y@filthyranter Which makes it exceptionally dangerous, considering the sheer amount of data.
-
@Parzi Sure, but looking at the collection, only my previously leaked (and already seen) data is in there.
