It's interesting how HIBP considers mainstream dating sites sensitive on par with adult sites, while shady hacking related forums are fair game.

- zrobotics 8y agoHave you considered the amount of PII the dating site is likely to have on their average customer? Access to a dating profile is almost as good as Facebook access to perpetrate identity theft.
- detaro 8y agoThat's not what makes a breach "sensitive" for HIBP, it's about breaches that only can be checked if you authenticated your e-mail address or domain, so that not everyone can check if you've used the site.
- strken 8y agoI always assumed this was to avoid outing people as gay, to avoid kids working out that their mother started dating again, or to avoid an Ashley Madison-type scenario. Those seem more dangerous than being found to have an account on dodgy-carderz.com.
