    Ah man, I'm sorry to hear that. No emails here yet, but not to say I'm not in the category one down yet (which is only slightly less bad). I'm starting to worry about the general p…

    Based on one newer article I've seen, leaked data dates back to 2017, so... No idea how accurate this is just yet though. They claim to have started notifying people today (Saturda…

    All it takes to register a new number here, are your details including name, DoB, physical address (all the complete ones leaked), the type of ID used (passport, drivers license) a…

    This just twigged something for me - there is now enough information available to easily do number ports, giving someone else control of the number used for MFA. Anything that reli…

    And why, oh why, are past customers in there. I'm a current one, but even 'not being with them' doesn't necessarily exclude you from this.

    OP here. Some more information here (not my preferred source, but oh well): https://www.news.com.au/technology/online/hacking/up-to-9-mi... It seems around 2.8m have had 'all' data…

    Unless you park uphill/downhill, and leave it in first as an added safety measure with the parking brake...

    I'm pretty certain I'll get burned at the stake for saying this, but similar to another poster - the one that works. I spent hundreds playing with mechanical keyboards, used compan…

    Check the terms - if you already own them, you're grandfathered into the Connect (highest tier) package for free (for now, at any rate). I recently got a second hand remarkable, an…

    Orbiting the Giant Hairball (Gordon MacKenzie). I gave my copy to someone, and never got it back, but would love to read it again. Not one thing in particular stuck, but the book a…
