Alcohol Delivery Service Drizly Confirms Data Breach (techcrunch.com) 15
An anonymous reader quotes a report from TechCrunch: Online alcohol delivery startup Drizly has told customers that it was hit by a data breach. In an email to customers obtained by TechCrunch, the company said that a hacker "obtained" some customer data. The hacker took customer email addresses, date-of-birth, hashed passwords, and in some cases delivery addresses, the email read. Some 2.4 million Drizly accounts are believed to have been stolen. TechCrunch obtained a portion of the data, including several accounts of Drizly staff members. We verified the data against public records. The portion of data we obtained also contains user phone numbers, IP addresses, and geolocation data associated with the user's billing address.
Drizly did not say when the hack occurred or how many accounts were affected, but did advise users to change their passwords. The company said that no financial data was taken in the breach. But a listing on a dark web marketplace from a well-known seller of stolen data claims otherwise. The listing, which we are not linking to, claims to have "fresh hacked" [sic] Drizly accounts. The data is on sale for $14, at the time of writing . The seller did not say when the breach took place, but the listing appears to have been posted on February 13. Although no sample of data was offered, the listing claims to have valid Drizly credit card numbers and users' order history.

Sounds like a delivery service for alcoholics.
I suppose in the same way grocery delivery is for fat people.
Never used either of them before, but coronavirus made both of them worthwhile services.

No, no, that would never work. Now, Tpsy sounds like a new unicorn to me.

I think Tipsy would be a better name. Kinda sounds like Etsy for drinkers and is the end result of consuming your order.
Sure, if you only want to target alcoholics with your product.
Enough of the verbal patty cake already. Just call it Drunky.

Hehe, yeah I was thinking of you!
This is getting ridiculous with the breaches, between them and "Dave" getting hacked recently. This seems to be a new ride to the bottom - how fast can we can get hacked - in... wait for it... 28 seconds! A new world record!!

What I find amusing is that we seem to now be in an age many of us have foreseen, where all the good trademarks/domain names are taken, and the company names are really stupid. I might have imagined a name like Drizly if I took enough drugs, but I don't think I would have ever imagined Dave.
