World's Biggest Data Breaches - terrific graphic

There is a terrific new Information is Beautiful interactive that presents the World's Biggest Data Breaches. It is produced by the data visualiser David McCandless.   It taxonomises the biggest data breaches, by year, by 'number of records stolen' or 'data sensitivity', and also by 'method of leak' (giving very interesting results). It can also show results by 'Organisation' type - how do you think 'Education' fares?
