Facebook: Oops, Millions of Instagram Passwords Were Exposed

Posted by E.L.E.X on April 20 2019 under Tech/Cybersecurity

The company appended a note to its original blog post about the incident on Thursday morning, slipping it right in between attorney general William Barr's press conference and the actual release of the redacted report. Reporters at Tech Crunch and other outlets still managed to spot the news, though.
