A German e-shop using the domains ‘windeln.de’ and ‘windeln.ch’ has leaked a hefty 6.4 TB of data online, which corresponds to more than six billion records that affect about 700,000 customers.

The shop is selling baby and toddler products and is also engaged in large-scale cross-border e-commerce business operations between Europe and China. At the time of writing this, the “de” domain is offline, while the “ch” one is up, so this gives us an idea of where the jumble happened.
