• Google has been hacked.

    From JAB@21:1/5 to All on Thu Aug 7 19:32:33 2025
    "Google responded to the activity, performed an impact analysis and
    began mitigations," the GTIG posting stated, adding the database in
    question was a Salesforce instance "used to store contact information
    and related notes for small and medium businesses."

    Customer data was, Google said, "retrieved by the threat actor," in
    the short period of time that the attack window remained open.
    Although Google has not gone into great detail regarding the attack as
    of yet, it did confirm that the stolen data consisted of "basic and
    largely publicly available business information, such as business
    names and contact details."
