Twitter to All Users: Change Your Password Now!
2018-05-03 22:40

Twitter just asked all 300+ million users to reset their passwords, citing the exposure of user passwords via a bug that stored passwords in plain text -- without protecting them with any sort of encryption technology that would mask a Twitter user's true password. The social media giant says it has fixed the bug and that so far its investigation hasn't turned up any signs of a breach or that anyone misused the information. But if you have a Twitter account, please change your account password now.
