all sites that allow logins are affected

It's like saying "nobody is safe", saying "everyone is in danger" doesn't quite sound the same

It's like saying "nobody is not in danger"

I like how the article has several links to things it mentions, but doesn't link to Have I Been Pwned at all even though that's the key site of the whole thing and where the reader should go to see if they're affected. Well done, article.
