      Twitter is urging its more than 330 million users to change their passwords after a bug caused some of them to be stored in plain text in an internal log.
       
      The social network said it had fixed the bug and that an internal investigation had found no indication passwords were stolen or misused by insiders.
       
      However, it urged all users to "consider" changing their passwords "out of an abundance of caution."

        Changed, though I already had login verification setup so no way someone else would get in easily.
