Det er 5 mio gmail kontoer og nogle passwords der hører til et eller andet andet sted hvor de gmail kontoer er blevet brugt. Så længe du ikke har samme password til din gmail konto som noget andet, så er din gmail konto safe.
re_dditt_er@Reddit skrev:Please downvote this back to oblivion where it belongs. It is an aggregation of email addresses they got from hacking certain sites, specifically
bravenet, filesavr, policeauctions, freebiejeebies, bryce, savage, savage2, bioware, friendster, eharmony, daz, daz3d, filedropper, and xtube (and maybe some others)
It is demeaning to Google's excellent security to say "ooooh hackers got yo gmail address and passwords!" when in reality this is "some person got a bunch of hacked emails from various crappy websites, removed all the non-gmail ones, and published it". [edit: there is a version with passwords, but those passwords belong to the crappy websites as far as I've seen]
Of course if you use a similar password for your gmail and another site, you 'deserve' to get hacked if you've ever been informed of basic password security (i.e. you should never use the same password for important sites).
I personally would be more concerned if I had provided shipping address or real name or other info to any of those sites, which could be used for identity theft or linked with my account (but which were not published).
edit:
Most likely a bunch of websites got broken into. If you're worried you are maybe in the 1% of people who had some random account on some random website compromised (or maybe got hacked because you logged into gmail at some internet cafe or a friend's computer... don't do that), you could hypothetically download the list of compromised emails in that thread (mega.co.nz, not the piratebay) and do a search for your own email. It's probably legal since the passwords are not in the same file and email addresses are public information, but don't take my word for it.
edit2:
oh hey, this is top comment... um... tell your little siblings not to use the same password for gmail/bank/etc., don't log in on hardware you don't own even if you have 2-factor authentication (a good thing, turn that on...), check to make sure you aren't being phished by a page which mimics the look of gmail saying "you've been logged off put in your password", turn on email credit card alerts, um.... stuff
only somewhat relevant: http://preshing.com/20110811/xkcd-password-generat... "through 20 years of effort, we've successfully trained everyone to use passwords that are hard for humans to remember but easy for computers to guess"
websites are really bad at security; expect that most websites you use will be hacked and everything leaked =(
