It’s only the private ones that matter. > It was likely many hundreds of data points since it would be trivial to check more than one number if you already had 2 copies of a tax return pulled up. How is this relevant? Multiple points from public sources don’t show anything. The only thing that matters is the number of sources who are both independent and private. All an attacker would need to do is have access to a few of these private records and they could make their leak look genuine.
