CNN mocked over 'trillion bytes of data' headline on the Mueller investigation

CNN Is being mocked over this headline stating, “more than a trillion bytes of data related to the indicted Russian individuals and companies’ use of social media to influence the 2016 presidential election”:

But since when is data measured this way?

And defense lawyers are accusing the prosecution of a “data dump”:
