I'm thinking this breach will only draw more attention to NordVPN, ever since yesterday I can't browse Reddit without seeing somewhere something about NordVPN. Anw, I read this article and it's an interesting story, this article picked good examples from Reddit. TechCrunch article that started all this didn't even name a "security researcher" who blamed Nord for lack of security, then official Nord statement came out with an explanation how some Finish company messed up their security and kept it secret. GG, TechCrunch for showing that profits (they're owned by Verizon that also has a VPN, LOL) matter more than objective journalism.
Who cares what Redditors have to say about this? I read the TC article, and I read the official Nord response. TL: DR - Verizon owns TechCrunch and Verizon owns a VPN as well. The breach that happened is very specific and does not involve any real danger to Nord users, but TechCrunch article stated the opposite without any proof. I think it's crystal clear what is going on here.
