    Detailed summary

    On April 13, 2026, Daily Dark Web reported an alleged data leak impacting FreeCast Inc., an American company active in the OTT, FAST Channels, and Out-of-Home Digital Advertising sectors. The report claimed "more than 13,200 files, totaling over 15 gigabytes of confidential documents" were exposed, reportedly prepared for a merger with AIB, previous IPO attempts, and SPAC attempts. FreeCast Inc. denied these claims. The company stated that an internal investigation found no evidence to substantiate the report, adding that it does not operate corporate or Virtual Data Rooms (VDRs), making the alleged exfiltration of an M&A data room inconsistent with its infrastructure.

However, FreeCast Inc. has not confirmed any data exposure.The company's denial indicates that the claims of a data breach remain unconfirmed. Details regarding affected individuals or specific states are not available due to the unconfirmed nature of the incident.
