Second movie already? the first one didn't even finish airing.

Only usernames and email addresses were taken so nothing particularly valuable although if you're subscribed to Earth 2 you're probably a bit gullible, so maybe it is worth having a list of known idiots email addresses.

People commonly reuse the same usernames and passwords with an associated email. All that must be done is check breach data for matching email and username and then try the password from the list. You'll likely find more than a few will be a match

Oh yeah, that list is going to be an absolute goldmine for scammers.

And honestly, if crypto people had any self reflection at all, the fact that being overtly a crypto person makes scammers flock to them, because they have hard data showing, statistically, how gullible they are should really make them reconsider being crypto people.

Is Earth 2 a dlc?

Wasn't that show cancelled?

After just one season, too. Damn shame. Tim Curry was amazing.

And they said there was no Planet B

This is like normal Earth except more crypto. So it's more like Earth Z

Or earth F if you put it on a tier list

Glad I live on Earth 1.
