    The article is full of typos, too.

    Who let this dreck out the door? Did Forbes lay off all their editors or what?

    Might be a bit early for a better source. I decided to share because if it is true its important to get it on peoples radar.

  This appears to just be a compilation of other leaks: bleepingcomputer.com/…/no-the-16-billion-credenti…

  Still not a bad idea to change passwords and make sure MFA is enabled.
