MOZILLA IS JOINING FORCES with Have I Been Pwned to notify users of its Firefox browser when they visit a website that has been hacked.

The new feature, dubbed ‘Breach Alerts’, will throw up warning notifications if a user’s credentials have been involved in a recent data breach, such as the recent mega-breach at Uber which affected 57 million users of the service.
