- imwillofficial 5y agoA breach is literally the opposite of willingly giving something over, or “handing it” to them.
- kelnos 5y agoI think you're being too literal. Using hyperbole here is the equivalent of saying "their security was so bad they might as well have just handed over the information".
- imwillofficial 5y agoYeah, you’re right. I just want to make sure people know it was a breach and not some form of leak.
