Data breach

Crunchyroll: a data breach

In March 2026, the anime streaming service Crunchyroll suffered a data breach alleged to have impacted 6.8M users . The exposed data is reported to have originated from the company's Zendesk support system where "name, login name, email address, IP address, general geographic location and the contents of the support tickets" were exposed. A subset of 1.2M email addresses from an alleged 2M record dataset being sold was later provided to HIBP.
