About This Breach
The eight classes are avatars, emails, geographic locations, IPs, names, Hashed passwords, usernames, and website activity. The measures do not mean unique people, active players, military personnel, or profiles containing every field together; no user-age inference is supported.
Financial data, government IDs, physical addresses, phones, and private messages are not classes. A record does not establish identity, an Army Force Online account or player role or military relationship, avatar or activity, IP or location, password ownership, field co-occurrence, or misuse.
MD5 is not plaintext but is weak by current standards. If the old password genuinely belonged to the person and was reused elsewhere, it should be replaced.
Verification and editorial method
LeakData compares the incident name, date, affected-record count, and exposed data types with accessible sources. Unverified fields are not presented as facts, and records are updated when new evidence becomes available.
