Data Breach Hits Harvard, UPenn as Apple TV Expands Content
A recent data breach at Harvard University and the University of Pennsylvania has exposed over a million records per institution, while Apple TV is significantly expanding its content library to compete with streaming giants, according to multiple news sources.
The hacking group ShinyHunters released data allegedly stolen from Harvard and UPenn in breaches that occurred last year, TechCrunch reported. The exposed data, initially attributed to social engineering, included alumni and development-related information. The incident has raised concerns about data security protocols in higher education and may lead to increased investment in advanced security measures.
Meanwhile, Apple TV is planning a significant content expansion in 2026 to attract a wider audience, The Verge reported. The streaming service announced a slate of new titles, including series like "Imperfect Women" and "Margo's Got Money Troubles," as well as films starring Keanu Reeves, Cameron Diaz, and Ryan Reynolds. This push for quantity complements Apple TV's existing focus on high-quality programming, signaling a shift in strategy to compete more directly with streaming giants like Netflix and Disney.
