I want to add to this. Sometimes governments or other organisations that are required to publish things choose to publish bad news late on Friday before a three-day weekend, or on another day when most people won't notice and the publication will be ineffectual. In my heart I don't consider that publication. It is the minimum required by law, but in my heart I don't see it as real. I suspect that most people feel as I do. Because of that, I also don't see publishing Epik's customer list as a 150GB database dump as real publication. Having to downloading 150GB, loading it into the right DBMS and figuring out the schema is enough to keep the data away from the general public. De jure it's public but de facto it's buried.
