This is aggregated data from info stealers not from compromising Google or FB systems.

Is this even new? Or is this the same bunch of stealer logs that has been floating around repackaged? This 149M is meaningless without removing the already seen entries and getting rid of duplicates.
This is a great question. I saw this and first thing I thought was:
Am I a part of this?
If this is a collection of stealer logs, no, but if it is Google & Facebook that have been hacked / had data leaked, then yes.
So far I've not heard anything from either, so I'm gonna assume that it didn't happen through those services until I hear otherwise.
and Is this on haveibeenpwnd yet?
It should be a standard practice to have a unique email and password for every service you use out there, plus the usual like 2FA. I have been doing this for years and never had any issue, but also you can tell if the service got compromised even if they never announced it. For example, I have an account on a service called Shakepay, and recently I have been getting a lot of phishing attempts on that specific unique email that's never been used anywhere else. I can tell for certain that their email database got leaked/they sold it.
How do you manage having potentially many different email accounts?
Just adding plus signs and the vendor name in the address would do it.
Time to change our passwords
I have just heard celebrations from millions of AI agents living in data centers cheering on yet another data leak full of unique login data ready to train on.
Now these AI agents are going to use this to get to know about us humans even more.
IMHO, any password shared with google and/or Facebook is instantly "leaked". I trust them less with my passwords than I do randos.
Companies trust them with their passwords and intellectual property and remain in business. It's insane to me too, but that's the world we actually live in
I don't understand, why do you say this? I would think that google's security is very solid, and am not aware of them ever being hacked to gain access to user accounts/passwords. Are you saying they're deliberately leaking user passwords to 3rd parties?
Reminds me of old IRC where you would trick a noob into revealing their password, then kick them out a bunch until they changed it. Channel would have a good laugh.
