I’m reposting this because I’ve realized (thanks to an astute friend’s comments) that I had jumped to a conclusion that was clearly mistaken: the password leak I experienced was almost certainly not the result of a Facebook issue. I posted a mea culpa on the original post but, since a good deal of time has passed, I thought I should repost so that more of the people who had seen my originally post would see this correction. I’ll try to be more careful in the future.
One point that was not mistaken: It’s a good idea to have different passwords for different sites and to change them from time to time.
Apologetically yours,
Kirk
