the breach appears to be legitimate and includes email addresses, along with optional fields such as first and last name, phone number, physical address, gender, and date of birth — although many of these fields appear to be empty.

So, this may be the most inconsequential leak in a long time. Grats to Conde Nast for not storing a zillion pieces of data on all their customers.

I have a wired account and I pulled up my details, since I remember almost subscribing, but bailing a few years back. All they got from me is a unique email address.
