Blizzard Hacked! Users Asked to Change their Passwords!

Blizzard Entertainment, the company behind Warcraft, Starcraft and Diablo, today informed customers that their internal security network had been breached.

The company doesn't believe that financial information has been compromised but other data including email addresses for all non-China players and scrambled passwords were taken. The company believes it will be extraordinarily difficult for hackers to break into actual accounts, but is recommending that all users change their passwords.


I certainly wouldn't want to be one of those WOW obsessed people. I couldn't imagine losing the months I spent into my role playing character.
