A handful of items from China exposed in a data leak?

This is not clear whether this leak is brand new, or a combination of data from prior leaks or breaches.

The fact that the number here is so large at a billion if not more may be concerning. Also to note, the fact that it entails only one country, that of Chinese citizens is also interesting.

What’s also interesting is that there was a leak or breach of at least 2 billion.

To top this all off, we know that this article is indicating that multiple sectors are affected including web, ride sharing and others.

Cybernews found this, and apparently it was an unprotected server. How many times have we covered that? I thought it was a one-off when we talked about open databases, but now its becoming more common. Get with it!
