Wow, the other comments weren't exaggerating. This is really bad. If my tax returns or other data were part of this, I might consider legal action.

I wonder if somewhere like Wired/Ars Technica/404media might pick this up?

I saw that this was also reported on r/Fiverr[0]. It looks like an almost verbatim copy of this. I don’t see much discussion (so far).

Company is now telling media this is intended behavior and users knew these files were public / shared the URLs themselves. We need to get some media with wider scope to challenge that.

Might also want to add El Reg [1] to the list.
