It may have taken place as early as 2021, before Elon Musk took over ownership of the company.

When Elon says he wants to free the bird , freedom of speech, etc, it also means that he wants your email address to be published for the world to know and see ..

Anyway, thanks to the lastpass shenanigans of last week, all my passwords were changed and 2FA redone .. and since I have a dedicated email box just for social crap (not myBB which is different again) , good luck to them.
