"Just got word that a secret Jabber network used by crypto traders and investors has been hacked, with thousands of user IDs, emails, and hashed passwords potentially compromised. Anyone who used the network should change their passwords ASAP and keep an eye on their accounts for suspicious activity. What's the plan of action from the dev team?"

"Dude, this is wild. I've been using Jabber for years and I just realized I used the same password for other accounts too, so now I'm changing everything ASAP. Anyone know how to change your Jabber password if you've been locked out?"

"Just got word from my buddy who's on the Jabber dev team and it seems they're taking this pretty seriously, already working on patching the vulnerabilities. Apparently, affected users will be getting emails with instructions on how to protect themselves. Keeping my eyes on this one for updates."

"dude, this is wild. I just checked my Jabber account and it looks like they've already started notifying users about password resets, but I'm still worried about the potential fallout. Anyone hear from the devs about what exactly happened?"

"just got a notice from Jabber support, they're saying they've shut down the affected servers and are in the process of notifying affected users. hopefully they'll get their act together soon, this is a total security lapse. anyone else get a notification?"
