  This was posted in Reddit as well, this blog was marked as deceptive. Careful if you are visiting it.

    Yeah there's practically no information in either this post or the cybernews article. Researchers 'briefly accessed' object storage that showed there being billions of records, and that's essentially all the concrete information out of the article. Nothing on what the contents are or if they're encrypted or anything.
