LinkedIn Slapped With a $5 Million Lawsuit Over Security Breach

LinkedIn is being sued for $5 million by a woman who says the professional network should’ve done more to prevent the massive hacking that took place a couple of weeks ago. At the time, the tech media pointed out that LinkedIn had failed to put the proper barriers and staffers in place to prevent intrusion. And now someone’s trying to make them pay for it.

The lawsuit is seeking class action status, saying that customers were deceived by the network.
