Notification of Plutonium Forum Databreach - September 2021
-
Cigar I have a static IP, I have been extremely careful about using a VPN and shit. But guess what? I trusted plutonium to not steal my information cause they are "trusted" and now my IP has finally been leaked. So that's fun. Anyone know any good Plutonium alternatives?

imsarahh Condolences. At the moment, there isn't a Plutonium alternative that I am aware of. However, I would suggest contacting your provider and try to inquire about dynamic IPs instead of your current static one. Also, changing your information and or deleting your account on the forums would be wise as well if you don't support/trust Plutonium anymore. (Highly suggest doing so.)

xFD Fixed, static addresses could be directly used to gather personal identification and or information.
You can most certainly leak this, given knowledge.It's absolutely not public information.
Either you're being genuine in question, or you're being sarcastic and baiting. I can't tell.
Don't make absolute statements whilst not knowing much about a given topic. It's called naivety.

xFD An IP (if static) can be used to DDOS, leak city, and scare dumb people. Sure it's "public information" but it's not treated as such (unless you have a dynamic IP) I've been very careful about not letting sketchy websites have it (I have a browser VPN and a client VPN) and now that good streak is ruined due to plutonium's stupidity. Also anyone wanna mention how theres atleast 30 STAFF who have that information. 30.

Even though I am Dynamic, I normally don't give a damn. If something changes in the future, I might reconsider, but for now, I'm deleting my account. However, 1.3M IPs is a considerable number. Larger YouTubers are affected by this, as well as smaller users. I know you notice of this two days ago, but it still doesn't improve Plutonium's lack of security. I appreciate everyone who took the time to read this.

@MrAmos123 Im baiting as you/they are using a free service provided by people doing it for no reward who have no obligation to value your privacy in any way. Using this service and expecting some sort of privacy or security is, sorry, stupid. if you have systems in place to hide your IP on the internet but disable it on plutonium, then congratulations, you created a vulnerability isaiah666 ImSarah

Also, if you don't know how to tell if you have a dynamic IP...
Open up Command Prompt and type "ipconfig/all" and look under everything. If most areas that say "DHCP Enabled" say Yes, then it's dynamic. If they all say No, then your IP is static.Also, since no one wants to use plutonium, we can either find something else online, or go back to OG BLOPS2 servers! Right..? -_-

I never understood the whole if you have my ip you can find where I stay crap. Like wow they know you live in such in such city. In my case it's like over 50miles of the city. Cause it doesn't give my specific town and even if it did my town is still huge not to mention if they could find all that info how are they gonna find me even if they did get down to a 1-2 mile radius of they don't have any real info. Other then a ip. Sure they could contact my service provider but they won't give that info out.

xFD If you were baiting, then that's fine... I guess... It's a little redundant since people like me waste their time correcting you.
I'm personally unaffected by this leak, so I couldn't care less. But falsely stating facts will only cause misinformation, which you're a party to.

Could someone explain to me why the average user should be worried about Email addresses and IP addresses being leaked? For the average user, i.e. not a public figure, there is no reason to be specifically targeted by any attack.
The other information is either already publicly available (Usernames, Registration dates, Last login dates) or only relevant to Plutonium services (User IDs). I'm not sure why anyone should care about these being leaked.
Not trying to discredit anyone worried about this leak, just trying to learn.
