Around 2008, the Babynames.com website, which helps parents give names to their children, leaks data. 846 thousand email addresses and passwords to them were published, stored in the form of salty hashes MD5. The leak became known in October 2018. Baby Names reported that “hacking occurred at least ten years ago” and that the participants were notified at that time.
