A massive trove of 16 billion stolen passwords was discovered — here's what to do
Researchers say they uncovered a massive data leak exposing 16 billion login credentials. The leak involves logins for platforms like Apple, Gmail, and Facebook, posing security risks. Companies advise using two-step authentication and passkeys to protect your accounts. Researchers say they've uncovered one of the largest data leaks in history that involves many popular platforms. The leak includes nearly 16 billion login credentials that could give cybercriminals access to social media and business platforms such as Apple, Gmail, Telegram, Facebook, GitHub, and more, researchers at Cybernews said this week. Bad actors now have "unprecedented access to personal credentials that can be used for account takeover, identity theft, and highly targeted phishing," the researchers said. The number of exposed people or accounts is unknown. The researchers said the data likely comes from malicious software known as infostealers. "What's especially concerning is the structure and recency of these datasets — these aren't just old breaches being recycled. This is fresh, weaponizable intelligence at scale," the researchers said. Cybernews said researchers uncovered the leak when the datasets were exposed for a short period of time. It follows the May discovery of a database containing more than 184 million credentials, including Apple, Facebook, and Google logins, Wired earlier reported. If you're nervous that your logins are at risk, there are steps you can take to make your account safer. You can't unring the bell of an information leak. However, you can take steps to identify if your credentials have been involved in any data breaches and protect yourself in the future. You can check sites like Have I Been Pwned to see if your email has appeared in a data breach. Turning on two-step authentication for your accounts can also help protect them from unauthorized access. Platforms also offer resources to help users secure their accounts. Google encourages users to use protections that don't require a password, like a passkey. It's one of the tech giants, along with Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft, that have been working to move users away from passwords to help secure their accounts. For those who prefer to stick with passwords, Google's password manager can store login credentials and notify users if they appear in a breach, a spokesperson told Business Insider. There's also Google's dark web report, a free tool that tracks whether personal information is floating around in online databases. GitHub, an online coding platform, offers developers a guide on how to implement safety measures in their organizations. The site recommends creating a security policy, having strict password guidelines, and requiring two-factor authorization. The data leak included logs — "often with tokens, cookies, and metadata," which makes it "particularly dangerous for organizations lacking multi-factor authentication or credential hygiene practices," the Cybernews team said. Meta offers a Privacy Checkup tool for users to review their privacy and security account settings. There, you can turn on two-factor authentication and ensure Meta alerts you of unusual logins. Meanwhile, Telegram said its primary login method sends a one-time password to users over SMS. "As a result, this is far less relevant for Telegram users compared to other platforms where the password is always the same," a Telegram spokesperson told BI about the data leak. Apple, GitHub, and Meta did immediately respond to a request for comment on the data leak. Google said it was directing users to some of the security resources above.

iPhone 20 Rumors Point to All-Glass 'Waterfall' Screen and Anniversary-Inspired Name
If Apple really wants to make a splash for the iPhone's 20th birthday in 2027, it may do more than just redesign the camera bump. Apple's engineers are prototyping an iPhone internally nicknamed "Glass Wing," according to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, speaking on the Geared Up podcast this week, with a display that flows like a waterfall not only down the left and right sides, but also over the top and bottom of the phone. Gurman called it the "iPhone X design but on steroids," and said that this is the phone that iOS 26 was designed for. A foldable is expected to release at the end of 2026. Gurman also floated the idea that Apple could brand the device the "iPhone 20," sidestepping an "iPhone 19" to sync the model number with the anniversary year. A quad-curved, bezel-free screen would mark the iPhone's most dramatic hardware overhaul since the iPhone X killed the Home button in 2017. Reports out of South Korea's ETNews say Apple is exploring "four-edge bending" OLED tech to make that borderless look possible, while Gurman's Power On newsletter describes a "mostly glass, curved iPhone without any cutouts in the display," hinting that the selfie camera and Face ID sensors could hide under the display. If Apple really does jump straight to an iPhone 20, the rename would echo this year's jump from iOS 18 to iOS 26 and 2017's leap from the iPhone 8 to the iPhone X, signaling just how big a redesign Apple thinks this phone will be.

INVESTOR NOTICE: Apple Inc. (AAPL) Investors with Substantial Losses Have Opportunity to Lead Class Action Lawsuit
SAN DIEGO, June 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The law firm of Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that purchasers or acquirers of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) securities between June 10, 2024 and June 9, 2025, inclusive (the 'Class Period'), have until August 19, 2025 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff of the Apple class action lawsuit. Captioned Tucker v. Apple Inc., No. 25-cv-05197 (N.D. Cal.), the Apple class action lawsuit charges Apple and certain of Apple's top current and former executives with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. If you suffered substantial losses and wish to serve as lead plaintiff of the Apple class action lawsuit, please provide your information here: You can also contact attorneys J.C. Sanchez or Jennifer N. Caringal of Robbins Geller by calling 800/449-4900 or via e-mail at [email protected]. CASE ALLEGATIONS: The Apple class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Apple misstated the time it would take to integrate the advanced artificial intelligence ('AI')-based Siri features into its devices; (ii) accordingly, it was highly unlikely that these features would be available for the iPhone 16; (iii) the lack of such advanced AI-based features would hurt iPhone 16 sales; and (iv) as a result, Apple's business and/or financial prospects were overstated. The Apple class action lawsuit further alleges that on March 7, 2025, Apple announced it was indefinitely delaying promised updates to its Siri digital assistant. The Apple class action lawsuit alleges that on this news, the price of Apple stock fell. Then, on March 12, 2025, the Apple class action lawsuit further alleges that Morgan Stanley published a report in which analyst Erik Woodring lowered his price target on Apple from $275 to $252, asserting that the delay in introducing advanced Siri features would impact iPhone upgrade cycles throughout 2025 and 2026, and presenting evidence that roughly 50% of iPhone owners who did not upgrade to the iPhone 16 attributed their decision to such delays. On this news, the price of Apple stock fell further, according to the complaint. Thereafter, the Apple class action lawsuit alleges that on April 3, 2025, the Wall Street Journal published an article titled 'Apple and Amazon Promised Us Revolutionary AI. We're Still Waiting,' which stated, in relevant part, that '[w]ith 'more personal' Siri . . . , the tech giant[] marketed features [it] ha[s] yet to deliver,' and suggested that while 'this is challenging technology and the cost of getting it wrong is devastatingly high, especially for [a] compan[y] like Apple . . . that must build trust with customers,' 'the same responsibility applies to marketing: They shouldn't announce products until they're sure they can deliver them.' On this news, the price of Apple stock fell more than 7%, according to the complaint. Finally, on June 9, 2025, Apple hosted its Worldwide Developer Conference ('WWDC'), almost one year to the day after first announcing the suite of supposedly forthcoming Apple Intelligence features at the 2024 WWDC, and Apple failed to announce any new updates regarding advanced Siri features, according to the complaint. On this news, the price of Apple stock fell further, according to the complaint. Last year, Robbins Geller secured a $490 million recovery in a securities fraud class action case alleging Apple CEO Timothy Cook made false and misleading statements to investors – the third-largest securities class action recovery ever in the Northern District of California and the fifth-largest such recovery ever in the Ninth Circuit. In the order granting final approval of the settlement, the court recognized the 'skill and strategic vision, as well as the risk taken by [Robbins Geller]' in securing the sizeable recovery while efficiently managing the 'uniquely complex' aspects of the case against 'highly sophisticated and experienced counsel and defendants.' Learn more by clicking here. THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired Apple securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Apple class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Apple class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Apple class action lawsuit. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Apple class action lawsuit.
