🔓 200M X (Twitter) user records leaked in a 34GB free-for-all—again.
Data enthusiast “ThinkingOne” released the files after allegedly failing to get a response from X. The breach combines:
・Data from a 2022 vulnerability X previously downplayed
・January 2025 breach data
・A total of 2.8 billion records spanning X user IDs, emails, bios, locations & more
X continues to deny its systems were the direct source of the leak. But researchers confirm much of the data is real—and the scale is unmatched.
💡 The kicker? ThinkingOne believes this might’ve required internal access, or an attack of unprecedented sophistication.
Even without passwords, this treasure trove fuels phishing, impersonation, and targeted disinformation.
