"The patient database of the private health clinic that conducts STD tests for California's porn industry has been breached, exposing test results and personal details about thousands of current and former porn performers, some of which have been published on a Wikileaks-style website.
Earlier this year, a website called Porn Wikileaks posted a list of what it claimed were the real names of more than 15,000 current and former porn performers, alongside their stage names and dates of birth. This essentially "outed" them to any passing Googler, which caused an uproar in the industry since many porn performers try to keep their real name secret, for obvious reasons. That 15,000 names were on the list was significant, especially considering only about 1,200-1,500 performers are currently working in California's Porn Valley."
