data braches [breaches]

[thuhoai]

Hi, everyone.

Here is a piece of news from Bloomberg


The inventor of Walkman music players was subpoenaed by New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman over the data braches, a person familiar with the probe said.

Could you explain the phrase "data braches"?

Thanks in advance

Hello thuhoai

There's a typo in the original text:

The inventor of Walkman music players was subpoenaed by New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman over the data braches, a person familiar with the probe said.

The text should read "... over the data breaches...."

Does that help?
