Blue Shield of California leaked the personal data of 4.7 million people to Google after a Google Analytics misconfiguration. The tech giant may have used this data for targeted advertising, according to Blue Shield, which is one of the largest health insurers in the US.

In a data breach notice on its website, Blue Shield says it had begun notifying “certain members of a potential data breach that may have included elements of their protected health information.”
