Welcome to the Identity Theft Resource Center's Weekly Breach Breakdown for January 17th, 2025. I'm Timothy Walden. Thanks to SentiLink for their support of the ITRC and this podcast. Each week on this podcast, we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. Today, we'll discuss a company I’m sure many of you have heard about or interacted with: T-Mobile.

In a significant legal move, Washington State has filed a lawsuit against T-Mobile, alleging the telecommunications giant failed to secure the sensitive personal information of more than two million residents following a major data breach in 2021. This case highlights data security, consumer protection, and corporate accountability in an increasingly digital world.
