Yet another reason why nobody should be using Substack for anything, in any way, for any reason.
They openly support nazi's and other things they shouldn't be supporting, and now they have had a data breach.
Substack data breach exposed users’ emails and phone numbers.

And it's out!
Zack Whittaker and I have released our report on the pilot survey we conducted to increase awareness about threats security researchers and journalists who report on cybersecurity and cybercrime experience.
We are grateful to all those who responded to the survey and shared a bit of their experiences. Based on what we found in a pilot survey with a non-random sample, I really think we need to do a bigger study that can also do a deeper dive into some questions.
You can read the report in html or download the .pdf version:

In conjunction with the release of the report, I've also added a new "Threats" category to DataBreaches.net.
