Ridiculous take. Absolutely zero kudos because it was obvious to everyone that this was the most likely outcome way back in August. Back in August the company issued a bullshit statement that they'd ruled out that the intruder accessed customer data. Now they are saying they did lose customer data.

Is this the same incident as the August incident (https://blog.lastpass.com/2022/11/notice-of-recent-security-...)? From this blog post, it’s not clear to me that they are.

EDIT to correct: Thanks to the link posted by u/voganmother42, this is indeed related!

Not to mention, this is mentioned nowhere on the LastPass page itself - only on that of the corporate owners.

Depending on the specifics it may be a legal requirement to disclose. FTC does not look fondly in hiding data breeches. At all.

Hacking is why we’re here. It’s criminal and exploitative behavior that sucks.
