Digi-key password update

[bitwelder]

well thats strange, it seems TPG.au the ISP is blocking digikey
i switched to a different line and it worked.

winmtr ping 12 hops, not a squeek on the other line. very weird

Is it blocking access to digikey (e.g. you cannot reach to their IP 204.221.76.76) or the DNS doesn't resolve / resolves to a bogus address?

I didn't get an email (unless it was a long time ago) but I just tried to login now and I was forced to change it so I did.

Either they are being diligent or it is indeed a database leak. I've moved to using unique passwords for each site now.  It's a bit of a pain since I need to always go check my password manager before I login to any site, but at least when there's a leak it will only affect that one site.

Next step I need to do is to use a separate email for each site.  That way when I get spam I know what site is responsible.
