I find the reporting of this as a "data leak", as opposed to a more aggressive term, rather concerning.<p>"UpGuard in its data estimated that up to 14 million customer records were exposed, but Verizon stated that data on 6 million of its users was affected."<p>I don't see how this would be considered a "leak" rather than a "breach". Are we starting to become desensitized to these security issues, leading to the reporting on them similarly weakening? Is the downplay of language a form of shielding the companies responsible from backlash?
