    Yahoo says all 3B accounts were impacted by 2013 breach, not 1B as thought

    Internet giant Yahoo's 2013 security breach has dealt the company yet another blow. Today Yahoo sent out a notice disclosing that a further investigation of the breach has produced new evidence. The company now believes that all of its three billion accounts were impacted, not 1 billion as it previously thought. This will include all people who have Yahoo emails, and all people who had registered for any other Yahoo service like Flickr or fantasy sports.

    Well, at least they were quick about it. Only took Yahoo four years to let everyone know that everyone's account was impacted.
