Tving data breach exceeds subscriber base, raising questions over 19.53 million figure

Attention is focused on the outcome of a government investigation into a mass personal data breach at online video service Tving. The known scale exceeds 19 million people, with the figure rising to 19.53 million during the probe. The number is far above Tving’s paid subscribers and monthly active users, raising questions over whether it reflects individuals or accounts and whether withdrawn, dormant or partner-channel accounts were included.
