Quoted from link above ^
"People can now enter their phone numbers into a website to see if they appeared in a recent Facebook data breach.
Details of more than 530 million people were leaked in a database online, largely consisting of mobile numbers.
Previously, users of the platform could only search for email addresses. Visitors to the website can now enter their mobile number into a search box, and the website will confirm if it has appeared in the leaked database".

Totally crazy how many services store or have stored their users' passwords in plaintext. Takes like 3 lines of code to hash and salt a password before saving.
