Have I Been Pwned?

Lucian Constintin discovered that a new website, haveibeenpwned.com, allows a user of the site to discover if their personal login information has been compromised during security breaches at Yahoo and other major Internet firms. The only identifying information that the user of haveibeenpwned provides is their email address, so this is not a means for harvesting user information.
