   I'm aware of the reports of a Steam data breach apparently involving Twilio. I've asked Valve press to confirm if it's valid and offer any comment on it. Not just going to repost unconfirmed breaches.

     This is a good reminder regardless to ensure you have Steam Guard set up.

     Twilio just confirmed to me they were not involved in the breach as has been said elsewhere. Now just waiting on a reply from Valve.

     Seeing some incredibly alarmist clickbait from other news sites coming out on this. Reminder: literally nothing has been confirmed or actually verified right now.

     @gamingonlinux It has been several hours now and still nothing from Valve. That isn't a good sign. If it were not the case, why wouldn't they just say "no, nothing happened." Everyone should update their security regardless of what happens out of good practice.

     @resplendent606 Valve aren't going to comment on every single thing that happens online, especially if not real
