ONLINE SECURITY - Web-link shortening service Bitly has warned that user account credentials may have been compromised. The service which is used by millions of people daily, including myself, converts long URL links into shorter ones in order to share them easily, particularly on social media. The company has disconnected user accounts from automatically posting to Facebook and Twitter. If you are a user of the service you need to log in to your account and reset the API permissions on your various Social Media accounts.
