>database of high-tech company gets hacked
>passwords leaked
How? If the passwords are saved as hashes how can it get leaked? Do the hackers also hack the login forms and wait for people to enter their passwords?
They don't employee a robust salting so it's easy to brute force.

If you have the salt and the algorithm, you can find passwords very quickly on a GPU cluster when weak crypto is used.

>password saved as hashes
Not always, some fags still just save your password as plain text in their databases, even send them to you after you try "recover password" on login. Where i live, web designers barely ever know what the fuck security means, it's already a miracle they can make a login database.

And if the database is from an old system, the MD5 or alike encryption they use has a very handy rainbow table called Google...
Sooo....yeah.... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Because your average pajeet thinks hashing means base64-ing the password

I think you are confused, friend. Web designers don't work with databases. Maybe web developers do, but that's something different.
