The plaintiff alleges the defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that Yahoo!

On September 22, 2016, Yahoo! Inc. revealed that a “recent investigation” confirmed that sensitive personal account information of at least 500 million account users “was stolen from the company’s network in late 2014 by what it believes is a state-sponsored attack.” Reportedly users’ names, email addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth, hashed passwords, and some encrypted or unencrypted security questions and answers were included in the data breach.
