‘The Ethical Hacker’ Exposes Satanic Child Predators Lurking Online & How He Hunts Them
"The National Public Data breach was ridiculous, to be honest with you. It was 2.8 billion records about a year and a half ago, roughly. And a Florida sheriff ran a data broker website, which had access to all of this data. He decided to reuse credentials for a demo project on his main production system, which allowed 2.8 billion records to be exposed with your social security number."
Cybersecurity expert Ryan Montgomery revealed that a Florida sheriff's reused credentials led to the exposure of 2.8 billion records containing Americans' Social Security numbers through a data broker site called National Public Data. Montgomery confirmed he obtained Tucker Carlson's SSN, driver's license number, and property signature from this breach. With only 300 million Americans, the database contains multiple entries per person, making identity theft and fraud dramatically easier for criminals who downloaded the file.
