Dubbed the 'RockYou2021' password leak, Laptop Mag reported claims of the largest collection of leaked passwords of all time, around 8.4 billion in total, being shared in a 100GB txt file on a popular hacker forum, including private login credentials for Gmail, Facebook, Apple, Paypal and other popular web services. Spotted by cybersecurity news website CyberNews, the website has set up a personal data leak checker and a leaked password checker and is encouraging people to check and see if their passwords have been exposed in the leak.
