Privacy and confidentiality issues of new media is related to account hacking. Hacks are not a shockingly new news and bulk of us know a “hack” email, but a new media hacks are the fresh best.

In recent years, LinkendIn’s 2012 attack that leaked out email addresses, in 2018 Instagram users were locked out of their account, and exactly this is happening to exploit a computer system.
