If you’re one of the millions of people who created an account with streaming porn site, YouPorn.com, we have some bad and potentially embarrassing news for you. A security breach has exposed the login and account information for a large number of its users.
Why anyone would sign up for a website the streams porn for free is beyond us, but we're not here to judge.
The breach effects users who signed up with the site in order to chat with the models. The site wasn’t hacked, instead YouPorn places the blame on a third-party chat service. According to Swedish online security expert, Anders Nilsson, the “data was found by someone sweeping websites for publicly accessible, but non-linked folders, looking for either porn or sensitive material like this, and struck gold.”
Seeing as how many people use the same login info for many different web properties like Facebook and Twitter, we suggest you change your passwords immediately if you have an account with YouPorn.
