Nestlé has denied claims that the Anonymous hacktivist group has stolen and published its sensitive data as punishment for continuing business in Russia.
On Sunday night, Anonymous published a list of companies it was targeting that had 48 hours to stop cooperating with Russia. After Nestlé’s inaction, Anonymous published a statement on Tuesday claiming they leaked 10GB worth of Nestlé’s data, including emails, passwords and client information.
However, the leaked file only weighed in at 5.7MB, which is only a small portion of the total Anonymous claims to have stolen. Nestlé has since negated the claims, saying that the affected data had already been published last month by the company itself.
