Just received a message from Chrome that my LPF password has been compromised :|

If the password you use here has been leaked elsewhere (i.e. you use the same password here as you do on other sites) then any website that you use that password on will show the same message.

Chances are another website has had a data issue and the same password is in use here so now this page will flag. If you reset your password then you'll remove any doubt at least!

Its not chrome... I got the same message on my iphone. It seems that after Apples 'forced' update last week they gave themselves axx to your passwords and now they are popping up all over the place. Google is doing the same thing... all part of the ongoing digital war where big tech is trying to take control of the world. And no... I'm not joking...

I agree with you. I also received similar messages, which immediately alerted me, and I've changed my password. I think that such measures should at least protect the safety of my data. I wouldn't want to lose my data from online resources either, as it happened on my hard drive a couple of months ago. There was some error or damage due to which they made external hard drive recovery and restored all possible data at that time. Therefore, now I'm worried that my data will disappear in the online space, and then I'll definitely have big problems at work, and I don't want this.
