But didn't Ledger have some kind of data breach a while back that freaked people out? I can't remember the details, but users were worried their personal info was compromised ...

As far as I remember the data breach in midth of 2020 leaked likely about 1 million email addresses and possibly something around 272,000 records of personal customer data like full name, postal address and telephone number (non-extensive sources: Cointelegraph, Twingate.com, bullshit letter by Ledger CEO).

Image how bad this is when shady criminals know you have purchased a hardware wallet to secure crypto coin assets and they know your real name and postal address (the latter isn't necessarily your home address, but it shouldn't be rocket science to find this one, too).

You tried to fly under the radar, keep a low profile, didn't brag about having crypto assets and now that. I'd be tremendously pissed if my personal data got leaked like that.

Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking about. It was a serious security lapse on their part, and frankly, I'm surprised such a company is still in business.

I mean, their core business should be the production of devices and software for safe keeping of user funds and personal data. What an irony!
