You shouldn’t have shared your information with someone who is untrustworthy then. Data sharing is opt-in.

Credential stuffing attacks will always yield results on a single use website because no one changes passwords on a site they don't use anymore.

Launching a feature that enables an inevitable attack to access 500 other people's info is very clearly the fault of the company who launched the feature.
