  34 <PRE>So, if your founder password ever gets compromised, no matter how many
  35 times you change it, if there are other persons who identified for
  36 that channel, they will stay identified and will be able to request
  37 the new password be sent to their emails?

  45 </I>&gt;<i>      Services keeps track of channels you have identified for as long
