    Possible Site Breach?

    Hello. I recently came across a text file that contains the ID#, Email Addresses and Login Names of all OC users... I know IDs and Login Names are already public, but emails? I'm assuming you guys already know about it but figured I'd post just incase, I did check through ~4 pages (going back to '11) of the news and announcements forum to see if anything about a breach had been mentioned but couldn't find anything... Did something happen?

    There was a breach back in 2013 unfortunately. There has simply been a domino effect over the past few years with a lot of forums, email providers, etc, etc getting breached. Especially with Yahoo getting 1 billion emails hacked back in 2013.
