need help. want to ask question of community. looks like I need to login but don't know password. reset password not responding
Mozilla notified me I am victim of data breach. One of their recommendations is to notify financial institutions. I need to know if this is neccessary since I do not do online banking. I have no financial info on my laptop except an Excel spreadsheet where I track CD / IRA interest rates. I'm thinking when Firefox reported : "Dates of birth, Email addresses, Employers, Genders, Geographic locations, IP addresses, Job titles, Names, Phone numbers, Physical addresses" that this is a generic statement and may not be 100% specific for me. Your thoughts on this. Certinly would prefer a conversation with a live person than doing this
