80G sounds like it could be nothing. They should probably be more specific about what kind of data.
80 GB zip file… Thats likely over 150 when decompressed, and the amount of personal data (wich is usually just text) could include basically everyones personal data, or all company secrets including source code and everything. Or maybe even both…
People are used to gigantic shit files nowadays, but text is very small, without pictures, audio or videos this could be a unholy amount of confidential material.
Could be one 4k porn too.
Would be bad.
It could be 90GB it could be a terrabyte.
Internal data, not user data.
The article says what’s likely in it as was previously disclosed from the hack.
Could you share what it says?
Of course:
At the time of the hack, Reddit said hackers had used a “sophisticated and highly-targeted” phishing attack to get access to internal documents and data, including contact information for employees and advertisers. The company maintained that the hackers hadn’t accessed user data that wasn’t public.
