Recent Security Issues
There has recently been a security incident that affected Minecraft (and two thirds of the internet). It is strongly advised that you change your Minecraft/Mojang password. Please see here for more information.

Yep, changing.

Dammit Heartbleed.

Yeah, I slothed around and didn't decide to change my password, and I just reaped the consequences a day ago on a server.

After getting an email from first Ustream, I looked up Heartbleed and understood it but didn't do anything, I got another email today from Mojang and then saw this post so I don't want to take the chances. I changed all my passwords on major websites. I also tweeted earlier that nobody should take any chances.

For those who don't know about Heartbleed, read these, and choose your next action wisely or just hope you don't become a victim of mass ID fraud on 2/3 of the internet:
