Earth 2 had a data breach.
(haveibeenpwned.com)
That was the crypto scam right?
Glad I live on Earth 1.
Hmm, well Earth 1 has had way more data breaches than Earth 2.
Is Earth 2 a dlc?
Second movie already? the first one didn't even finish airing.
Only usernames and email addresses were taken so nothing particularly valuable although if you're subscribed to Earth 2 you're probably a bit gullible, so maybe it is worth having a list of known idiots email addresses.
People commonly reuse the same usernames and passwords with an associated email. All that must be done is check breach data for matching email and username and then try the password from the list. You'll likely find more than a few will be a match
Oh yeah, that list is going to be an absolute goldmine for scammers.
And honestly, if crypto people had any self reflection at all, the fact that being overtly a crypto person makes scammers flock to them, because they have hard data showing, statistically, how gullible they are should really make them reconsider being crypto people.
Crypto is a revolutionary product because it enables users to possess their own units of account. With great freedom, comes great security concerns. Keep in mind, the vast majority of scams are still conducted with fiat currency. Blaming ignorant crypto users does not overshadow the value digital assets provide to humanity. These benefits include: protection from fiat debasement, the ability to transact without intermediaries, global accessibility, privacy, and transparency. We're using the fediverse for fucks sake, so some of these features ought to be seen positively by many of us. You're absolutely right that greedy and gullible are drawn to crypto because "line goes up." There will always be a learning curve for new technology and hard lessons will be taught to early adopters.
Wasn't that show cancelled?
After just one season, too. Damn shame. Tim Curry was amazing.
Shit, I didn't get the update to Earth 2!
And they said there was no Planet B
This is like normal Earth except more crypto. So it's more like Earth Z
Or earth F if you put it on a tier list
