Crunchyroll has been hit with a second class action lawsuit in the space of a month: this time, it's related to the alleged major data breach that occurred on March 12 via a third-party vendor (Telus), which Crunchyroll says it’s currently investigating.

Quote:
The plaintiff, based in Washington State and suing in the Northern District of California, makes various allegations. The plaintiff alleges that Crunchyroll failed to properly safeguard consumers’ personally identifiable information (PII) by sharing data with companies that used substandard data security. They add that this has caused harm through stress and anxiety, and the material risk that exposed PII will be used to commit fraud and other acts.

The proposed class of affected customers is “All individuals within the United States of America whose PII and/or financial information was exposed to unauthorized third parties as a result of the data breach experienced by Defendant on March 12, 2026.“
