Even more interesting (at least in my opinion): In the same week, another 1 million accounts were compromised: "Over 1 million user credentials compromised in Android Forums hack," http://www.h-online.com/security/news/item/Over-1-million-user-credentials-compromised-in-Android-Forums-hack-1640164.html. ... and another 400,000: "Formspring question-and-answer platform compromised," http://www.h-online.com/security/news/item/Formspring-question-and-answer-platform-compromised-1636642.html. Finally, a non-compromised site is experiencing break-ins, presumably from username stemming attacks and password reuse: "Thousands of GMX accounts compromised to send spam," http://www.h-online.com/security/news/item/Thousands-of-GMX-accounts-compromised-to-send-spam-1638088.html.
