Exactis, 230M US Consumers Personal Data & 110M US Businesses Data

Exactis, a Palm Coast, Fla.-based marketing and data-aggregation company, had exposed a database containing almost 2 terabytes of data, containing nearly 340 million individual records, on a public server. That included records of 230 million consumers and 110 million businesses.

While the database apparently does not include credit-card numbers or Social Security numbers, it does include phone numbers, email and postal addresses as well as more than 400 personal characteristics, such as whether a person is a smoker, if they own a dog or cat, their religion and a multitude of personal interests. Even though no financial information was included, the breadth of personal data could make it possible to profile individuals or help scammers steal identities.

This is the end for him.

Update: While no known breach occurred, the bad press caused partners to drop them and the business itself is basically done.

Apple
16 Yr Old Australian Accessed Apple Servers Many Times Over a Year and Stole 90GB Worth of Data & Customer Accounts

He stored the documents in a folder called 'hacky hack hack'.

Apple insists that no customer data was compromised.

But The Age reports that the boy had accessed customer accounts.

According to statements made in court, the smartphone giant contacted the FBI when it became aware of the intrusion, and the matter was referred to the Australian Federal Police (AFP).

An AFP raid on the boy's home revealed two laptops with serial numbers matching those of devices which had accessed the system. Police also seized a mobile phone and a hard drive.

According to The Age, the teen had boasted about his activities in WhatsApp messages. It reports that he had hacked into the firm because he was a huge fan and dreamed of working there.

Did he think this was like some movie were someone hacks into the FBI and they get arrested but then some mentor figure recognizes his talents and gives him a job?

Basically the same shit that happened to valve in the half-life 2 era.

If you bought anything from newegg from now until last Aug 14th, you may have had your credit card info stolen

Downside: Just bought a few things from Newegg last week. Got their email about the breach this morning.
Upside: Used the company Amex and not one of my cards, AP Dept will watch for any fuckery while I float along wrapped in blissful ignorance.

[Zetanio]

Does this count for the eBay Newegg stuff?

[TsingTao]

The hack skimmed data off Newegg's servers as people made purchases. If you went through Ebay you shouldn't be exposed.
