More Mixpanel shenanigans.

I had an inkling! They've been on a roll this past year or so.

>This data includes a PornHub Premium member's email address, activity type, location, video URL, video name, keywords associated with the video, and the time the event occurred.

Well, that's pretty fucking wild! Email address & time and location sent to a 3rd party, nice! Absolutely no reason for that, of course. Especially considering these are paying customers!

I guess somewhat notably is Mixpanel denying that it's coming from their November breach. They have less incentive to lie in this case, given that they've already admitted to being breached, and (presumably) their systems & logs have been gone over with a fine-toothed comb to identify all affected parties:

>"The data was last accessed by a legitimate employee account at Pornhub’s parent company in 2023. If this data is in the hands of an unauthorized party, we do not believe that is the result of a security incident at Mixpanel."

From pr0n to playlists and paperclips, trio of breaches spills data of millions
