Update: What's Going On with Anime News Network?
posted onUpdate 2: Full story here.
Update: we've restored our @anime Twitter account but lost the account's followers - if you were following us before, you'll want to hit that button again.
Last night, Anime News Network suffered a pretty major hack, one that took down our original domain (www.animenewsnetwork.
Further, AnimeNewsNetwork's domain was breached, but not our servers - your personal information is safe, however we always recommend changing passwords just in case.
Through this process, the hacker also compromised some of our Twitter accounts, like @anime and @animenewsnet as well as a handful of personal staff accounts like @ANN_Ed and @ANNZac. We're still working on cleaning all this up – it's a pretty involved process that may take some time, but for now we're live at AnimeNewsNetwork.cc. Please spread the word on social media, as this is our new (temporary) home for the time being! We'll be back with more updates as things progress – we apologize for the inconvenience, and shall rise again soon.
