The title suggests that s3 itself was leaking objects outside of its design and intended controls.
A real leak would be Bucket with same name leaked objects from other same names bucket... letting a customer get another customers data.
I don’t see why s3 is anywhere in the article. It’s distracting and hints that someone the people in charge of this sensitive data should be off the hook for poor data stewardship.
Maybe title should be
“Provider left cloud object store unsecured and someone noticed. “

A more accurate title is that this firm leaked the data, not S3 itself.
