    Petkauskas’s article describes the discovered breach as “a plethora of supermassive datasets, housing billions upon billions of login credentials” that have been sourced from “social media and corporate platforms to VPNs and developer portals.” This data is sourced from “30 exposed datasets” that researchers say contains “tens of millions to over 3.5 billion records each.”

    To be clear, this is not a new data breach, or a breach at all, and the websites involved were not recently compromised to steal these credentials

    Regardless of whether this involves freshly leaked credentials or not, it might be a good time to freshen up your logins. Hackers’ jobs are getting easier by the day.
