Data Breach at PeopleCheck. Messy stuff, there'll be a lot of people in this that never even heard of the company.

Can you believe it’s ten years to the day since the Ashley Madison data breach hit the news?! It’s still arguably the most impactful, most widely publicised data breach in history. krebsonsecurity.com/2015/07/online…
