It's not actually FUD, but it's just one of those "blown out of proportion" discussions.
There have been two data breaches that I know of that can be called "Kingston Data theft"
The most recent one was in August, and that is Kingston Technology Data Breach
It is claimed that the hackers stole about 139 GB of data from Kingston Technology.

The second is something I have read about since the beginning of the year.
Hackers stole about 160 GB of data from the Kingston Police in Ontario. According to the latest report, the hackers have deleted the data after negotiations and payments were made to the hackers.
