I just searched myself and found that my "Apollo" information was leaked in 2018. I don't know what "Apollo" is though and don't think they should have my details. Does anyone know details about that leak?
- TechBro8615 6y agoIt was a company that scraped public LinkedIn profiles and then got their database popped.
- underlines 6y agopublic information became public?
- I_am_tiberius 6y agoThat means my email address must have been accessible publicly.
- TechBro8615 6y agoYeah I'm not sure, they might have scraped other info too e.g. GitHub. Frankly I think it's kind of silly to categorize this as a "breach" when all the data was publicly available. And if you're trying to hide your email, you're fighting a losing battle already. Best to just assume your email is public knowledge.
- neogodless 6y agoIt's odd because an email I only use on Facebook is in the Apollo leak (and the Zynga one due to Words with Friends on Facebook.) So does Apollo have information from more than just Linkedin?
