Hey everybody, you probably already heard about this but Patreon has been hacked. Jack Conte, Patreon’s founder wrote about what happened.


To quote the part that is relevant for you:


„No specific action is required of our users, but as a precaution I recommend that all users update their passwords on Patreon.“


It seems there has been no bank/credit card data breach (Patreon does not store this information), so at least something!


Here is the Article about the hack: https://www.patreon.com/posts/3457485

This is so funny^^ Understandig how webpages and hashing works im not worried, but all the breachalarm pages i use have gone crazy^^ Could you maybe do a video on that someday?

Not sure how stolen email addresses are not a big issue. I get enough spam already. :/ - Luckily it's easy enough on this site to change the mail address, so I'm going to delete the one used here and will use a new one.

i doubt thats wat theyre after while hacking a website^^ I would say they wanted credit credentials and passwords. Thankfully patreon knows how to hash and encrypt x3
