GoDaddy discloses recent security breach that exposed 1.2 million accounts
Well, this isn't great. Probably not impacting people here, but still newsworthy.

Is everything stored in plain text ? What year is it, 2005 ?
Didn't GoDaddy acquire Sucuri back in 2017? I guess they forgot to protect themselves.
Oh, me soooo surprised!

I blame CumMummy
Given this was go daddy, was it really a breach? I feel like this was more of a sale
No two-factor auth for their admins, and no intrusion detection either? lol
I reckon it was only discovered because someone at the company, perhaps an intern that knows what they're doing, noticed something weird in their logs.
I'm afraid you might be right.
I hope Porkbun isn't next...
Are they related? Is PB known for being shitty? I used them a while back to get some cheap domains, though transferred them all to Cloudflare, where I intend to stay forever.
They're not related to GD and in my experience, they are pretty good.
I do believe in above stated, seen a few corporate companies are not even following GDPR (as data is transferred to 3rd party company in India - IT Support, outside of EU zone) but do pretending that they are GDPR compliant.
Based on what I've seen it's best to presume any and every providers, registries, etc. security being flawed.
