@Buffer got hacked but your passwords and billing are safe

There’s a good thing about getting hacked. It gives you an opportunity to show that by using OAuth, your clients won’t have their private information or passwords exposed. That’s of little benefit to Buffer right now, but it’s something.

Users of Buffer — the tool that allows you to schedule your social media across timezones — may need to remove the app after Buffer was hacked today and the service began spreading scam links.
