I used to have just one domain with Epik in the past - testing the registrar.
2. Are you worried and what's your plan NOW and when the hacking is OVER
I never closed the account and my EU home address and personal phone is most likely exposed to the public.

I always consider to create an account epik as their transfer fee is low and they are one of the few registrars who accept bitcoin. But I didn't have time for it. Although I am politically socialist and they are conservative, it's business.

I don't see it listed on TPB. I don't want to download 300GB but I'd like to snag a copy so I can see what information of mine they actually have. Wonder where it is being shared.

My quick conclusion is that you're not a security researcher :sneaky: My advice to anyone wanting to download a copy to play with, is to check the applicable laws in your country before you proceed. And remember this, ET may be able to phone home. Learn proper forensic procedures as well.

This morning Epik forced me to reset my pw on login. I had reset it shortly after the notification of breach a couple of weeks ago.

Are others encountering that, or is it something on my account? I think forcing everyone to change pw is a good idea, just wondering if that is what they have now done.

I received that notice and and changed the PW, last week.

I have google authenticator enabled.
You think it's still risky even using it?

Alright, my turn to add to this.

When I learned of the breach I was hella pissed and actually moved some of my mission critical domains to somewhere more low key.

Do they have better security? Probably not, but they are a smaller target. lol.

Since then however I have sold a name listed on Epik for low 4 figures, and registered about 15 or 20 new names.

There simply is not a better platform in my opinion.
you know how many????

Congrats on the sale

People came to rob me at my house several times but I am not going to move because I like the neighborhood and the house price is cheap here. I just have to buy more locks for my house. No big deal.

social boundaries are contingent on having the know-how with respect to personal matters; alongside techie potential, i am glad to have reached milestones through Epik and look forward at to adding value with my private family realizing at this moments' stage of my life right of passage it matters that these people know me - just called them!
