Rituals leaks data of 41 million souls

Rituals has managed to spill the personal secrets of 41 million people across the UK and beyond after their membership database was helpfully downloaded by unauthorized parties. Names, birth dates, and physical addresses are now out in the wild, which is a rather significant price to pay for a loyalty card and some bath salts. This massive breach serves as a lovely reminder that every shop you visit is essentially a ticking clock for your personal identity. Protecting ourselves from this nonsense involves the exhausting task of monitoring accounts and questioning why we ever gave our home address to a soap shop in the first place.
