It's hilarious, 2.9 billion social security numbers (US concept) but wait... there aren't that many people in the US.
The data is pretty uninteresting and has a lot of duplicate records with slight variations in the street address. SSNs are essentially public data at this point, just freeze your credit.
(should be frozen by default but that's another conversation)

- px43 2y ago$ wc all-ssns-sorted-uniq.txt 272535129 272535131 2997533927 all-ssns-sorted-uniq.txt 272,535,129 unique SSNs in the leak, so like 82% of the US population. Somehow I'm not in it, but lots of people that I know are. Also, super important, but address history is in the leak, so all those sites that ask you about your address history to authenticate you need to knock it TF off right now.
