Hey everyone, just saw some news that's pretty wild and affects a lot of online communities. Archive of Our Own (AO3), which is a massive fanfiction platform for many fandoms including games, has been taken down due to a hack and they're saying it could be offline for up to a month! Apparently, user data like emails and even hashed passwords might have been compromised, so they're advising people to change any reused passwords – good advice for all our gaming accounts too. It's a huge blow to a massive creative community, and it's always frustrating to see platforms that people pour their passion into targeted like this. Makes you wonder about the security of all our online accounts, doesn't it? What are your thoughts on these kinds of attacks on community-driven platforms?
