Data Privacy in Social Media: Who Takes Responsibility and Data Protection as a Priority Feature

Let’s perform a small experiment. You’ve probably heard about haveibeenpwned.com, a webpage capable of showing whether your personal data has been leaked just by entering an email address you use. It can be a private or a business one, all you have to do is enter it on the site’s front page. It is recommended to use a private one because most of us use private emails for creating social network accounts, accounts for various sites, Steam accounts, and other digital accounts we use. Of course, since known companies that provide tools used by businesses – such as Dropbox – also had their servers breached and user accounts stolen, you can also check whether your business email was a part of a data breach.
