And of course at the moment it's not possible to modify profiles, so we can't change our passwords, but that's pretty logical given that someone just stole login information for the site. I imagine they'll have to send e-mails out with unique links to unlock our accounts and force a simultaneous password change or some such, since otherwise whoever got our account information could just log in and change our password to lock us out. | ||

You won't get locked out coz you can still use the "Forgot password" feature. | ||

It still makes sense that they've locked account information, though, until they can force mass password resets to prevent malicious tampering. And to zYwi3c: There's nothing in the OP that indicates when the intrusion into GOM's system took place. In your situation, I would assume that both the old password and the new password have been comprimised. | ||

I think there should be public outroar about this, they had all the time in the world to fix this issue but instead just hoped nothing would happen. They have shown their technical abilities to be far lacking in other aspects as well so i guess this and future incidences are to be expected | ||

You mean this LastPass? ""Network traffic anomalies" to and from the databases of the LastPass password management service have caused the company to suspect that intruders could have harvested personal information – including some customers' master passwords."
