Pornhub claims 36 billion visits per year
WASHINGTON: The hacking group “ShinyHunters” said on Tuesday it has stolen data belonging to premium customers of the leading sex website Pornhub and is threatening to publish it.
Although Reuters could not immediately establish the scope, scale, or details of the breach, the hackers provided a sample of the data which the news agency was able to partially authenticate.
Atleast three former Pornhub customers — two men in Canada and a man in the US—confirmed to Reuters that the data pertaining to them was authentic, albeit several years old.
“We're demanding a ransom payment in Bitcoin to prevent the publication of data and delete the data,” ShinyHunters told Reuters in an online chat.
Pornhub and its corporate owners, the Ottawa, Canada-based Ethical Capital Partners, did not return messages. News of the breach was reported earlier by cybersecurity news site Bleeping Computer.
