Coinbase didn't get hacked.

Coinbase employees sold customer data on the black market.

That's not even social engineering.

If I offer money for something you have access to, and you sell it to me, I did not "hack" you. 💡

Exactly!

it was not theirs to begin with that they sold

The employee stole the data to sell it.

That's not "getting hacked".

i mean they lost data, so …

Very well said! 💯

Employees being "bribed' for data by outsiders doesn't mean anything legally because employees voluntarily sold the data. This isn't" being hacked".

This is plain data theft by Coinbase employees, and failure to protect data by Coinbase itself.

Not rocket science.
