Sorry, but I don’t think we’re emphasising enough that Pornhub shared details of its users, such as their search history and watched videos, with an external company and that external company kept that data for over four years after their relationship ended.
Pornhub’s data with Mixpanel was last accessed by “a legitimate employee account at Pornhub’s parent company in 2023,” according to the statement. “If this data is in the hands of an unauthorized party, we do not believe that is the result of a security incident at Mixpanel.”

I’ve read ‘the last legitimate login was in 2023’ so more like 2 years, but yeah
I don’t see any reference to 2023 in that article, but this:
It was Reuters reporting on the same story
