Facebook Data Breach

[Jonas]

@royalroy Data is very casually handled in India. There are various files available online that have name, number, even full addresses of people. 3-4 years ago even electoral roll was easily available online.

The electoral roll is still available online on their website. It includes name, father's name and complete address.

This actually is a big leak, but for some reason It doesn't feel so. Any information on if the ad manager's data was compromised as well?

Only one search result appears when I google. It seems like they have removed the data from that particular repo.

It's still available in the google cache. Arrow next to the link - cached.

And much much more. If you were to Google for example say something like

 inurl:ekyc inurl:KYCDocument

you'll find hundreds of pages with PII.
C'est la india
