Interesting logic... what's the point of "just telling them"?
- johndhi 2y agowell, there are a few things you could do short of publicly dumping a ton of private information to achieve the same or similar goals: -publicly announce that you've breached X amount of data, and provide hashes of the files and tell the breached entity to confirm the hashes are accurate otherwise you'll publicly dump; -publicly prove you've accessed the files in a way that requires breach notification laws to be triggered -- so the company is forced to post embarrassing announcements but the actual risk to the underlying people in the dataset is reduced what I don't understand is why you have to screw over all of the little people and individuals by just making everything public.
