Police in Bulgaria announced the arrest of a 20-year-old computer programmer Wednesday. His crime? Orchestrating a staggering hack of the European country’s national tax authority that swiped astonishing amounts of data, including the names, addresses, job titles, incomes, health insurance specifics, loan details, and social security information of nearly every adult citizen in the country. According to police, that intimate data was taken from as many as five million Bulgarian adults, which amounts to nearly every working adult in the country that is home to some seven million people overall.
