A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

That's usually how it goes. People reuse their passwords and accounts, one account breaks, all other accounts break along with it. Then it's reported as a huge data leak targetting one of those potential sources, depending on what gets you the most clicks at the time. Currently ChatGPT. If their databases had been breached, I feel 100.000 wouldn't be the number.
Not saying it won't be, eventually. But this ain't it, it appears.
