Not trying to be the Bigshot, but I've been using Internet since 1997.hmmmm check my previous post about opera sync server(s)being hacked. Has anyone following this thought that even like these issues have been going on for absolutely ages that the VERY SEVERE hacking of the Opera sync servers SEVERE IN THE IMPLICATIONS could have something to do with the problems of people being unable to "sync" AND opera customer /technical support being unable to do absolutely f*** all about this for months. Maybe I'm just being paranoid.when opera say everything was encrypted though someone or something tried to access an email address that was the same email addresses using the same password as the credentials for the opera sync fortunately my email provider (which through healthy paranoia I only use for opera) there was an attempted access from Iceland -nothing could have caused this type of breach especially Iceland WTF.I AM really upset coz unlike lots of people I realise opera is non profit and for me (up until this FU) has provided such an amazing product TO SAY THE LEAST
Paranoid thinking I think not when an email account used ONLY for opera is attacked from a distant country probably via a proxy ,honest transparency would be noce

Oh yeah email apparently sent from opera makes me a little paranoid that hackers may have all my fave websites not that there's anything to be paro about. I did think something may have been bad when like some guy said the password was showing and in my case I had tick boxed that password shouldn't have been shown in plain text but it was

HAS THIS GOT ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS f...up? Re: sync trouble

Dear Opera sync user,

We wanted to let you know that in order to protect your Opera sync account we have reset your password. In order to continue to synchronize your data, you will have to go to the Opera sync service and make a new one.

The reason we have done this is because we detected an attack on some of our Opera sync servers. Our investigations are continuing but we believe some of our users’ passwords (that are still encrypted or securely hashed) and account information such as login names may have been compromised. As a precautionary measure, we have reset all of the Opera sync users’ passwords. In an abundance of caution, we also encourage you to change any passwords to third party sites that you have synchronized through the Opera sync service.

To regain access to Opera sync, click “Forgot password” from the synchronize dialog in the Opera browser menu and then create a new password.

We take your data security very seriously and want to sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this might have caused you.

Thank you for your cooperation,
The Opera sync team

I'm switching to Firefox until this crap can be sorted. Firefox now has all the functions I require of Opera,just hope my phone has enough system resource to run it OK or I'm in trouble.either that or I'll give Chrome spy-ware ago, mind you correct me if I'm wrong Android is Google, so its spies on every app anyways.
