How can you steal a password? Isn't it encrypted like a public/private key?
>>
Good. I hope Microsoft is hacked and data stolen every day. People will stop pushing Windows 10 aka Spyware as an OS when they find out all the data Microsoft is stealing from them is compromised.
>>
Headline says Microsoft but Gmail passwords were the majority

All this bias

How could they get google, Microsoft, and yahoo accounts? Smells like bull.

Its from phishing emails and pages, not a actual security breach.

If you have common sense pro installed its impossible to be "hacked" like this

Where can I pick up the database?

it wasn't just M$- Google, yahoo, and mail.ru were hit.

Usually. They recommend you change your password anyway, when they get a hold of the hash strings. Just in case. I didn't read the article in the OP though, so i dunno.

>people give away their passwords to phishers
>"data breach"
Why even both reading news
>>
Mail.ru was the main one that got """"""breached"""""" and the little bit of GMail and Outlook got caught in it and those were probably the phishing EMails and shit, the title of the article is pure bullshit.

It's reasonable that some apps have less than stellar security. Theoretically using login APIs provided by the company should prevent this, but you can't fix stupid.
