Personal information of 5 million people in El Salvador leaked

According to hackers, the personal information of more than 5 million Salvadorans has been leaked since last Saturday, making it the worst data security incident in the country's history. The stolen information includes names, birthdays, phone numbers, addresses, and even high-definition, watermark-free headshots. The leak involves the vast majority of adults in El Salvador. The leaked data has been circulating on the dark web for $250 since August, but the hackers allegedly failed to receive the ransom and decided to release the data for free.
