Getting sick of changing my b4st4rd passwords because companies are not securing their sh1t properly, starting to really p1ss me off

Only email address, nothing special.

I found the pastebin link. Thankfully my email isn't in there, but my wife's email is.

Welp I'm just gonna wait until the inevitable email from EA telling me they reset my password. It's a 50 minute wait to chat with someone live...

My email address isn't listed on that list, so I ain't worried.

I'm not overly worried. I use KeePass so I have 90 different passwords for 90 different sites. I just always air on the side of caution.

Actually I think it's disgraceful that UGLegion is making all these emails and passwords available for download. I find it reprehensible. They should have just notified Origin that the hack was possible and left it at that. Nobody's account was open for attack until they published their results. They should be held accountable for any problems.
EA says that the list is an "artificially-generated list that has nothing to do with Origin". Maybe the whole thing is fake?
