just precautions yahoo addicts you might want to change your
yahoo passwords, according to the news reports all over the net
450,000 users were affected or victims on this breach you might be
one of the victims and might not its up to you if you do these
precautions or not but just to be safe, i did.

personally i think its much more cooler to just crack 450,000 names
hacking the database is so cheating lol.

I guess those 450,000 names were ids which were created decades ago and not new ones, since my friends with 10 year old yahoo ids or more are complaining that they could not login their ids anymore. So bro 420, can you confirm whether those 450,000 names are old ones or new?

i'm guessing its both

Yahoo confirmed it was hacked and provided the following statement:

“An older file from Yahoo! Contributor Network (previously Associated Content) containing approximately 450,000 Yahoo! and other company users names and passwords was compromised yesterday, Of these, less than 5% of the Yahoo! accounts had valid passwords. We are taking immediate action by fixing the vulnerability that led to the disclosure of this data, changing the passwords of the affected Yahoo! users and notifying the companies whose users accounts may have been compromised. We apologize to all affected users. We encourage users to change their passwords on a regular basis and also familiarize themselves with our online safety tips at security.yahoo.com

its already been put out the names had weak passwords such as 123 , abc , 123456 etc .the media dubbed the cause towards "a hacker group" called d33d but come on we should already know that its more like script kiddie group using bruteforce kit, which is not hacking by any means
