And ... I was hoping things would look up, but no. Capcom just published an apology for a data breach. This, as you probably can tell, is the translated version:
"It has been found that some of your information has been leaked to the outside world due to unauthorized access by a third party in the online member service 'CAPCOM ID' (*1) operated by our company. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience and concern caused to our customers and related parties" https://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/news/html/261022.html
