Mashable Ben Parr Gawker Hack on "Attack of the show G4" negotiations [video] (Mashable)


Our own Ben Parr made an appearance on the attack to see today to talk about security recently experienced by several sites belonging to Gawker Media issues.

He speaks with Kevin Pereira questions at your fingertips: personal password and the user for a number of sites hosted by Gawker were compromised, and since many users use the same password for all their activities online, their other accounts - Twitter to PayPal and beyond - were also at risk.

Watch the clip to get the complete history as well as advice from Ben to keep yourself and your online accounts safe - and Yes, there are ways to easier to do than keep random 20-character passwords stored in your brain-box already overclocked, we promise.
