    Company has been laying off people in droves. This stuff will become more common with AT&T.

    Change service providers. Sell any stock you might have.

    I also put a ring door camera on the inside of my bathroom to keep me safe!

    Which means AT&T customers can expect spam calls/texts to get much worse in the coming weeks. This breach is basically a gigantic list of known good phone numbers, and there are free tools available to link names/emails to phone numbers.

    Hackers didn’t do anything, at&t failed in one of their few roles, security. It’s your fault for being so pathetically shit. These companies seriously need major punishments or being jailed for life. I’m beyond sick of them all and they no fucks given bribe everything mentality.

      Hackers in this case likely means someone who can read a url and increment a number and is curious. Which ought to be everyone over the age of about 7.

      Congratulations! Everyone is now a hacker!

            Yeah, most effective illegal hackers are working for intelligence agencies or criminal organizations. The legal ones work for companies.

            The ones “for the people” are very few.
