From a quick skim through https://github.com/samuelclay/newsblur for models extending mongo.Document, it looks like the following private customer data has been breached:

- all story content from all private feeds

- any uploaded OPML files, including URLs for any private RSS feeds

- User’s twitter/facebook account info and access tokens, if the user had linked those services with their newsblur account

- all data that would be used to create a user profile page, including email address, whether the user had a public profile or not

However most personal data, such as password hashes and billing info, was stored in postgres.
