Online image sharing community Imgur notified users of a potential data breach which occurred in 2014 which affected 1.7 million accounts. Imgur said that email addresses and passwords might have been compromised. The company said that it got an email on November 23 by a security researcher and said that he had data that included information of Imgur users.
“Our Chief Operating Officer received the email late night on November 23rd and immediately corresponded with the researcher to learn more about the potential breach. He simultaneously notified Imgur’s Founder/CEO and Vice President of Engineering. Our Vice President of Engineering then arranged to securely receive the data from the researcher and began working to validate that the data belonged to Imgur users,” Imgur said in the blog post.

This is why I use and donate to community-supported file/image hosts like mixtape.moe, catbox.moe, kek.gg, vgy.me, ect. and you should too.

Oh, for the love of God, how can you fucking dumbasses miss the point so badly? I was trying to be polite, not question your intelligence. I encouraged you to go back to read the post that started the discussion to make you realize that it was hardly even about archival, and yet you're still going on and on about this stupid narrative? And why? To what end? To convince me? Of what, something I'm already fully aware of? Or to stroke your ego? I guess since you already know what a rhetorical question is, I should think you already know what the answer to that one is. Good job. You're certified oldfags. You've proven the immense length and girth of your epeen to myself, a random stranger on the Internet, and I do confirm that it is of excellent size, so congratulations. Congratulations on your epeen, and congratulations on winning the argument. You must be so proud of yourself.
