Out of all 12 million, AntiSec only posted 1 million for the public to see.<\/p>\n<p>Lifehacker says that \u201cnone of the data is personal information,\u201d but could potentially be linked to \u201cdevice owners, names, and addresses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Do you own an Apple product? There are several ways to see if your information was leaked:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Start at <a href=\"https:\/\/whatsmyudid.com\/\">this Website<\/a> to figure out what your UDID is in the first place. Basically, while using the website, plug your Apple device into iTunes to have a copy of the UDID come up on your computer.<\/li>\n<li>After you\u2019ve found your UDID, go to <a href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/apple\/2012\/09\/04\/heres-check-apple-device-udid-compromised-antisec-leak\/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed:+TheNextWeb+(The+Next+Web+All+Stories)\">Next Web\u2019s data checker<\/a>. The website contains a list of all released IDs, and they are available to scan quickly to check for your own ID.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If you want to make sure your data wasn\u2019t released, there is an <a href=\"https:\/\/pastebin.com\/nfVT7b0Z\">AntiSec file available for download<\/a>. The file contains all one million UDIDs, and there\u2019s no quick way to sift through it. The file also contains a significant amount of data that has nothing to do with the stolen UDIDs, but rather tells the reader all about AntiSec and their goals. There are several download links towards the middle of the document.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href='https:\/\/sitesdev.net\/articles\/2012\/09\/05\/apple-udids-stolen-by-antisec-were-you-a-victim\/' rel='nofollow'>Used with permission from Article Aggregator<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AntiSec, a well-known hacker group, posted last Monday that they had gained access to an FBI database and stolen some 12 million Apple UDIDs, also known as Universal Device IDs.
