find-leaks-in-the-wild

Find leaks in the wild This is where data surfaces before anything indexes it, and where most of what you find is a recombination of things that leaked years ago. Two mistakes cost people most: assuming a paste host's own search will find pastes, and reporting a combolist as a breach. The first wastes a day; the second is a factual error in a deliverable and it will be found.
