> Another general observation on this incident: I'm seeing extensive sharing of the data, both the entire corpus of countries and individual country files. Not just in hacking circles, but very broadly on social media too. I made a Google search 8 hours ago. There were 10 pages hits of link spammers where you have won an Iphone, but they don't have the data. So, yes public interest seems big. I wonder why Google cannot catch those, after opening the first one I could recognize the rest from the address and the snippet. Google did not have a correct link that still had the data. Maybe they are not publishing those, getting bad reputation to big data is not exactly in their interest.
