I heard about that.
I've lost sight of all the different sites I visit but most the important stuff has been changed.

Good thing only Steam has my card. Only one password to change. Might as well as change my emails since they're old as fuck anyways.

Google'd. There's a test to see if a site you use is affected.

What's happening?What I'm getting is that a large sum of websites/web services use encryption software called OpenSSL and, as it turns out, for the last two years there was a huge exploitable bug (recently dubbed Heartbleed) that can decrypt passwords, usernames, or any other data that the software is used for. Any account you make is vulnerable and anywhere you posted personal info, credit card numbers, etc is equivocally so.
Most web services have used the recent patch that fixes the bug, but any passwords used before the patch is at risk of already having been taken, so it's been recommended that people should start to change their passwords to protect themselves.

So, assuming the site fixed that already the safe bet is to change our passwords?

Tried to ninja-edit that into my last post.
