    LastPass’ data breach got it sued.

    Someone has filed a petition for a class action against LastPass, claiming its security measures were “woefully insufficient.” The password management company suffered a breach in August, leading to an even worse leak where hackers got their hands on customers’ encrypted passwords.

    The person who filed the complaint claims to have lost thousands of dollars in Bitcoin because of the hack, though that could be hard to prove.

    There’s no promise this lawsuit will go anywhere, but LastPass probably didn’t need more to worry about right now. Several security experts have heavily criticized LastPass’ security, as well as the way it disclosed the breaches.

    Microsoft has formally recognized the ZeniMax union.

    QA workers at Microsoft’s ZeniMax Studios have voted to join the Communications Workers of America and, true to its word, Microsoft has formally recognized the organization. That means that the National Labor Relations Board won’t have to litigate the election, and the company and the union can start negotiating.

    The approximately 300 workers in the union are looking to “put an end to sudden periods of crunch, unfair pay, and lack of growth opportunities within the company,” according to one employee quoted in the CWA’s press release.

    Korea fined Tesla $2.2 million for its range advertisements.

    The Korea Fair Trade Commission dinged the automaker after taking issue with Tesla’s wording on how far its cars can drive on a charge — apparently, the regulator wanted the company to be clearer that electric vehicles’ range takes a significant hit in the cold, according to Electrek.

    The company has now added a disclaimer to its site saying “displayed drivable distance may vary depending on external factors such as speed, weather conditions, and road conditions.”
