Star Citizen announces 1.0 release date.


Basically one of the companies that runs a Discord bot was hacked.
This company uses their bots on various Discord servers to log who you are and try to prevent alt accounts from joining the same server (probably to help enforce any bans).
It shouldn’t affect anyone who doesn’t have a Discord account, and even those with discord accounts would only be affected if they were in a server that had this bot.
Usually, for servers using bots like this, they make it a requirement that you need to verify your account with the bot before you can access all channels. During the verification process the bot requests your personal info from Discord. A warning/prompt appears confirming that you want to share the info and then discord sends them whatever they’re asking for. In this case it was your IP address, your name, email, address based on billing info, etc.
