Not everything seems to be magical in Disney's streaming kingdom. BBC has reported hackers may have stolen thousands of user accounts, with details being sold on the dark web.

BBC cited a ZDNet investigation which explained how hackers are able to lock users out of their accounts by changing the email and password details. One user who has paid for three years worth of subscription on Disney+ has reportedly been blocked from accessing her own account.
