It sounds like a big one. Millions of records exposed. Chinese hackers/govt to blame.

    Data was stored without encryption, according to news stories this morning and I hope at some point that that will be criminal neglect - given the nature of the data, it would not surprise me (nor would I blame them) if someone sued the company/if there was a class action. It's really a very significant and concerning breach - it makes me hope that other companies will see this and take appropriate measures but I doubt it.
