[Link] Astraweb retains your account and stores passwords in plain text

[Hecks]

I thought that this thread over at r/usenet was worth linking here:

This really is quite unacceptable practice, IMHO - both not hashing passwords, and refusing to delete user accounts ever. Any Astraweb users should be concerned.
