Actually they've become quite regular now. You just don't know about them.
LinkedIn, Bigbasket, Air India, Dominoes are just some of the prominent ones.
Breaches and data leaks won't happen according to your expectations. They are bound to happen irrespective of what you or anyone else expects until these cos. decide to do something about them.So you are expecting breaches on a weekly basis so that such suggestions should count.
Guys, relax. My message was intended to be lightly humorous (I should have articulated it better with a ) The suggestion comes at the time where leaks/breaches have become part of everyday news.So you are expecting breaches on a weekly basis so that such suggestions should count. If that's the case there are still very meaningful sub-sections which can be formed.
Anyways, not my concern you may reach out to mods.
I'm not sure why but I think these are not breaches ...Actually they've become quite regular now. You just don't know about them.

Why are you not sure?. They are breaches. with your phone number they can now identify the work or home location.I'm not sure why but I think these are not breaches ...
I don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist but I feel data is sold then called as a breach and then they publicly admit (what honest company eh wah .. atleast they admitted .. I'll still buy Domino's Pizza because they're at least honest) and both parties make money later. Janta eats pizza forgets everything next day. Bau for everyone.Why are you not sure?. They are breaches. with you phone they can now identify the work or home location.
Data doesn’t need to be sold to classify it as a breach. for normal/ most people, it’s not gonna matter as you said.I don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist but I feel data is sold then called as a breach and then they publicly admit (what honest company eh wah .. atleast they admitted ..

You atleast got the messageData doesn’t need to be sold to classify it as a breach. for normal/ most people, it’s not gonna matter as you said.
Just bau for so many elites who've done the same in the past since ages.Also the Mobikwik breach recently that leaked a lot of sensitive info. They simply denied the leak and moved on.
Similarity is both are equally hard to pronounce and chicks love using this word in their grammer nazi debates to correct us poor happy geeks. I might've had it don't recall/know as I habitually avoid fancy food items.Are schezwan and schewan different? :|
I've never had any btw.
What can possibly be done with that data you think?Why are you not sure?. They are breaches. with your phone number they can now identify the work or home location.
lets say you work in tech or another company which is data sensitive. Hackers can identify where you work from the work location and target you with phishing, etc. Now instead of sending bulk mails, they can send sophisticated mails tailored for you which will make you believe that its a genuine email, etc. and increase the chances of harvesting credentials of your personal/ corporate logins.What can possibly be done with that data you think?
Ok. You think you'll become a phishing victim?lets say you work in tech or another company which is data sensitive.

yes. Not only me, others also could becomeOk. You think you'll become a phishing victim?
If you think you will be a victim you will become one. Others become victim all the time.yes. Not only me, others also could become
a victim due to this breach.
Identity theft..What can possibly be done with that data you think?
That can happen by other means too.Identity theft..
So ?That can happen by other means too.
So it means these breaches will happen again and again. We can use our head and circumvent catastrophies.So ?
If your identity is stolen, the damage is already done. Yes, data breaches will happen and in this case it may not impact you. But imagine something like the Equifax data breach.
