Hi, I saw this article but found nothing with the search. It's fake or should we worry?

https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/hacked-bitcointalk-org-user-data-goes-up-for-sale-on-dark-web/

I'm lucky because I wasn't here on 2015, but I think I should say something at least, just to be sure.

It's not fake but theymos has notified all users at that time to change the password.

Since you have been registered in 2016 that hasn't affected you but others should be aware if they haven't change the password since then.
