Is it safe now to be on Steam?
Can I be logged in, buy games and play games yet without the worry of having details stolen, yet?

duh what kind of question is that you noob
Don't you know what happened?
A ddos has nothing to do with hacking or security.
it was never in danger.
The ddos made the server stress out, causing the caching error. Its fixed now, valve announced it.:steamhappy:

let me guess they did that on twitter or facebook?
I wish they put it on the news page but they never do.

Where?
Well, some strangers now might have: your full email, last digits of your phone number, credit card etc. They could have removed your credit card (or other payment method) etc. I didn't check what was possible during those hours but it was not "nothing" or "harmless". Even now I still get emails by some strangers who warn me that my account was visible to them... ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.
oh i get it, it was like a secret santa thing where each person gets a different account to buy a present for.

i am of course kidding
Everyone look, we were not being hacked.

A DDoS attack would NOT cause the caching issue we saw. If anything it would prevent caching at all and take the Steam services down. Or you would be served stale information about your own account (not someone else's) if a service was under load and they had circuit breakers in place.

It was a mis configuration (here's a quote from Valve which was emailed to several websites. I got it off of PC Gamer): "As a result of a configuration change earlier today, a caching issue allowed some users to randomly see pages generated for other users for a period of less than an hour"
