carnival corporation data breach turns out to be dated footage, not a new hack
A video of a hacked passenger manifest has circulated widely on social media, with users claiming a new Carnival Corporation data breach has compromised millions of travelers. However, fact-checkers confirm that this footage is from a confirmed 2021 breach, not a current event. The clip, originally posted by a cybersecurity researcher, shows a mock-up of stolen data that was real three years ago. Despite the viral claim, no evidence of a recent hack has been found. Verdict: Fake as a new breach, real as recycled scare content.
