PornHub Premium members data exposed after Mixpanel analytics breach
PornHub Premium members' sensitive data was compromised when the ShinyHunters gang breached third-party analytics provider Mixpanel through an SMS phishing attack, exposing 94GB of historical records including email addresses, viewing activity, search queries, and location data from 2021 or earlier. The attackers launched an extortion campaign threatening to publish the stolen data unless ransoms were paid.
**One more perfect example of why you should delete data of your former customers. It's a lot less trouble down the line. Also, why in the world would someone have an account with a porn site? If it happens on the internet it stays on the internet!**
