A well-known hacker has leaked the details of more than 2. Here is a step-by-step guide to reducing your digital footprint online, whether you want to lock down data or vanish entirely. The dating site's data has been shared as a free download on a publicly accessible hacking forum known for its trade in hacked databases. The content of this file includes a wealth of information that users provided when they set up profiles on the MeetMindful site and mobile apps. Messages exchanged by users were not included in the leaked file; however, this does not make the entire incident less sensitive. While not all leaked accounts have full details included, for many MeetMindful users, the provided data can be used to trace their dating profiles back to their real-world identities. When we reached out for comment to MeetMindful on Thursday via Twitter, a MeetMindful spokesperson redirected our request to an email address from where we have not heard back for three days.
Chris McKinlay was folded into a cramped fifth-floor cubicle in UCLA's math sciences building, lit by a single bulb and the glow from his monitor.

Hackers have stolen email addresses, direct messages, and other personal data from users of two dating websites, according to a data breach expert. Earlier this week, someone alerted Troy Hunt, the founder and maintainer of the data breach alerting website Have I Been Pwned , that hackers had breached two dating websites, CityJerks and TruckerSucker. The stolen passwords are scrambled with a weak algorithm that could potentially be broken and allow hackers to see the actual passwords. Hunt said that the tipster told him the breach was advertised on a hacking forum. TechCrunch independently verified that the data stolen from CityJerks and TruckerSucker is being advertised on the forum.
