I completely stopped getting their update emails when I deleted all of my running apps. This is the second one I've seen on HN that I haven't received (though I received the others).

Is the impact limited to specific customer accounts, or are they just not updating me anymore?

From the email:

> We value transparency and wanted to notify you of an issue affecting your account.

My guess is they sent it to users with pipelines that have env vars. It's funny since this sentence demonstrates they don't value transparency by not telling the other users more information about the hack.

They updated Heroku Status but surprisingly failed to mention anything about CI or pipelines.

I think it's specific to apps with Review Apps or Heroku CI (specifically the Config Vars). If you didn't have those, based on this email, you may not be impacted.

I had both of those, and I had config vars for my pipeline apps.
