Is there a simple way to find out if your Information was in this leak, and what information it is? I use haveibeenpwned for leaks linked to my email address, but from I read in this article, it's not linked to my email address.

So how do I found out if my data was leaked without paying for a credit monitoring service?

the U.S. and other countries "around the world"

meaning, for those of us living on other planets, we are completely safe ... such a relief ! /s

It's best to say around the world just so who ever is reading it doesn't think it region specific.

For example, they could say "the U.S. and other countries in the western hemisphere."

Is this why I got the latest scam email saying I need to pay $4k in bitcoin else a video of me wanking would be leaked.

Oh shit sorry. I must have accidentally sent that email to the wrong person. I meant to send that to my dad.
