Just when you thought your shopping data was safe... A major e-commerce giant in South Korea just confirmed a massive breach. We're talking about 33.7 million user accounts compromised. That's not a typo—millions of customers now facing potential privacy risks.
What makes this particularly concerning? The scale. In an era where data is the new gold, breaches of this magnitude remind us why decentralized identity solutions and Web3 privacy protocols matter more than ever. Centralized databases remain honeypots for attackers.
The affected platform hasn't disclosed full details yet, but one thing's clear: traditional security models are struggling to keep pace with evolving threats. Maybe it's time we rethink how we store and protect user data altogether.

33 million accounts breached—feels like centralized storage is bound to cause problems sooner or later.

More than 30 million accounts vanished overnight, it's time for centralized databases to retire.

33.7 million... Oh my, how scary this number is. It’s only with news like this that I remember my data has long been sold who knows where.

Here comes this trap again, promoting Web3 with 33 million account leaks? Wake up, centralized enterprises should have died long ago.

33 million accounts, this number sounds ridiculous... it's the work of a centralized database again.
