Last week, news broke of a new cache of stolen PII data being released. "Collection #1" consisted of over 700 million e-mail addresses and over 20 million passwords. And, it was reported more collections (2-6) would be released soon. But, shortly after the news was announced, many experts reported the bulk of the data had already been released in to the dark markets, so the majority of the "Collection #1" data was "old". Many experts stated this wasn't a big deal because the information is already out.
