Yahoo! Hack - Actual Compromised Accounts could be 1-3 Billion

So the number of hacked accounts could be as high as 3 billion despite the previous estimate of 500 million or the previous estimate (before that) of 25 million.

A Yahoo insider says the hacked database could be much larger - Business Insider
