Hostinger faced a data breach
#8
This comes as quite a shock because they are so big. But, similar has already happened to other web hosters such as 000webhost. Websites like Android Forums and Badoo, even Bitly. I think people still believe to this day that where it says they are safe with that "green lock" on the toolbar, they assume that they are OK and nothing can really happen with that data. Well, they are obviously wrong and need to be better educated on this stuff, and that's most internet users in my opinion.

Forums, general websites, security companies, and much much more have been targeted more than ever, and it is sick that these hackers have nothing better to do. Cyber security is getting so serious and scary for governments. I am entered in Have I been Pwned emails so I am aware of my data being breached, that way I can take immediate action against whatever/whomever is getting their hands on my data.
You can visit this website here to keep track of data breaches and more: https://haveibeenpwned.com/PwnedWebsites

The list continues to grow at Have I been Pwned because people are always trying to brute force something, hack into something, and it is really rather sad. I recommend that if you are not signed up for that site you should definitely check it out to better protect yourselves! I am sure that there are other providers that keep track of this, but once you enter your email it will pull up a list of sites that were breached. That is the only site that I know of that keeps track of this stuff, and I am glad that someone actually is showing these companies off.
