The site it said it was?

Do you have a password saved or memorized? Does the site have a link or form to log in?

> Was it actually a password I stopped using 5 years ago, but is still floating out there somewhere?

They can't be sure. Why not change it to be safe?

I'm sorry, but I have absolutely no idea what sites fall under the banner of the "FooBarBaz.NET" dark web data dump.

What is FooBarBaz.NET supposed to represent? The LinkedIn breach affected LinkedIn for example.

There's a bunch of high-impact leaks that had a rather inscrutable nickname - from the front page of https://haveibeenpwned.com/, I certainly wouldn't be able to tell what does being affected by a "Collection #1" breach mean, or "Exploit.In" or "Anti Public Combo List".

That said, HIBP specifically does provide that information which is more than actionable, and that being the most prominent of these services, I'm not so sure what the complaint is about really either...
