We are starting to see hacked accounts from the leak appear and begin to troll these forums. Theymos needs to force a password reset on all unchanged passwords ASAP.
Who is 'we'? And how do you know?
We have been discussing this. -
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1068422.0We are starting to find long inactive accounts come back online and troll this forum in a different voice than the original user.
This.That.It is impossible to know for sure which ones are and aren't as some of these inactive users may be coming back because they are prompted to change their password by Theymos by the email that was sent and than they came back and posted a bit.
What will that do? it'll only make it slightly easier for the hacker, he won't have to go through as many mouse clicks to reset a password after he logs in.
No, Theymos needs to change all passwords and force users to reset passwords through the email account on file. The hacker will only be able to exploit accounts that have used the same passwords or security questions between bitcointalk and their email if this is done.
This has already been suggested to Theymos in Twitter 2 days ago ...
https://twitter.com/bitcointalk/status/602017247788343296Why this isn't being done is shocking to say the least. Perhaps Theymos is trying to gather a bit of information about the hacker by delaying this security measure.... lets hope so.
