Apple security blunder exposes Lion login passwords in clear text
I can't name a single person who ever used "Legacy Filevault"; that's the "encrypt your home directory" thing from Leopard. This issue doesn't impact Lion FDE at all. Lots of people use Lion FDE.Even the subhed on this story is misleading, and the lede paragraph seems to go out of its way to bury the true article lede, which is "if you're using FileVault home directory encryption, this impacts you" --- instead, it says "in specific configurations".More generally: can anyone name a single case where ZDNet has broken a story we cared about? Even in this case, ZDNet is rehashing stuff published elsewhere earlier.
