South Korean e-commerce giant just confirmed a massive security incident—nearly 34 million users had their personal data compromised. The breach raises serious questions about centralized platforms' ability to protect user information. For those in crypto and Web3, this is yet another reminder why decentralized identity solutions and self-custody matter. When traditional tech companies hold your data, you're always one breach away from exposure. The scale here is staggering, affecting a huge chunk of Korea's online shopping population. Time to rethink who controls your digital footprint.

34 million users have been exposed, centralized platforms are really unreliable --- Another big scandal, this time it’s about a South Korean e-commerce platform, data leaks never seem to stop --- Ngl, looking at this news reminds me of the information I stored on those platforms, a bit scary --- Haha, they still claim their security is top-notch, but look at the result, it’s really a joke --- 34 million people, this scale is indeed outrageous, no wonder Web3 is all about Decentralization --- Why do some people still believe that centralized platforms will protect them? It's too naive these days --- Self-custody is really not a radical idea, just look at these data leaks and you’ll know --- Every time something like this happens, I want to forward it to those who are still doubting encryption --- This is why I’ve long retrieved my important information from these big companies

340 million users have been hammered, or do they still say they are very safe? This is how centralized works.

The data of 34 million people is gone, this is the cost of centralization... --- Another large data breach, it's time to wake up and manage your own keys. --- South Korea has blown up this time, showing that no matter how big the platform is, it can't be trusted... we still need to move to web3. --- Every time such news comes out, there are always people who realize it too late, unable to understand why we need Decentralization. --- 34 million users... we need to reflect on who should control our data. --- Forget it, even if big companies are secure, it's just an illusion; we still need to trust self-custody. --- Another crash, this thing about centralized platforms is just a ticking time bomb.
