Nope, but if I can shift my debt into a credit union I'm canceling it anyways, because screw getting gauged by visa.
Poll: Are You Cancelling Your Credit Card over the Steam Hack?

More than enough. I am now even less worried, which is pretty impressive, seeing as I wasn't even slightly worried to begin with.The_root_of_all_evil said:AES256 protects the nuclear launch codes. Simple enough?Sunrider84 said:

No why would I as I do not store my info there and the last thing I bought was well I don't actually remember when.
Basically the general method for decrypting a file is called 'brute force'. Throwing numbers at the file's encryption until something comes out the other end that makes sense. AES256 has so many possible combinations that it would take a really long time, as in, we'll probably all be dead and our descendants will be space communists in another galaxy by the time the code gets cracked.Sunrider84 said:
I only keep a small amount of money of my card, so even if it does get grabbed, I won't lose out to much.
I changed the password, and I have Steam Guard.
And I don't have a credit card. I use a separate pre-pay debit card for online purchases, and only put money on it when I'm actually going to buy something

I changed my password and have steam guard. Steam guard probably won't help because they didn't try to get into my account, but the information they got was encrypted and hashed so there isn't much they can get out of it.
I changed the password.
Just thought I'd let you know that my confirmation code was as follows:

Nope. If there are some credit card information there it has been at least two years old. That card doesn't work anymore.
Well, I am using a bank card that takes money directly from my account when I buy stuff. Plus, I have a authenticator for my account that I need even to get into my account in the first place, and that encryption thingie sounds good. So I guess I should stop worry about this. Plus, I could find any info about my card anywere on my profil settings and stuff. And I changed my password. :3
Nope. I changed my Steam password because it was the same as my Steam forum password, but I have faith that Valve properly encrypted that thing that they don't think was stolen. Odds are very good that we are safe, but I'm glad that Valve was so transparent.
I'm waiting to see if it gets used first. Replacing a cancelled debit card is such a pain in the ass.
What is this? Free video games? Is this legit?Matthew94 said:1. They don't know it has been takenTigger1992 said:
2. It's encrypted in AES256, they won't be getting into those files.
Also I don't plan on doing anything drastic maybe a password change.
Shit, I just paid for Portal 2 -_-Atmos Duality said:Ayup.Matthew94 said:1. They don't know it has been takenTigger1992 said:

Mathematically, it would take a regular 4ghz processor more time than the sun has existed to brute-force AES256.
Even jacking up the factor of processing, that's STILL a long fucking time to crack one file.
OT: Nope, haven't used my credit card on Steam for well over a year and didn't save the purchase info.
Nah, I'm not too worried. If Gabe tells us to worry, then I'll worry. But for now, I'll put some faith (and quite a bit of mathematical reason) into the AES256 encryption. But I did also change my password, on the principle of "shits and giggles".
