When we hear these stories, we never hear about the end result. We only hear about the act. It's like hearing a gun was fired. It was fired, but what did it hit?

The data that is in these databases have a high probability to be abused. Blackmail and intimidation are easy to hide. What number of the people that had their location data exposed through this database were shot soon after? What number of people had their identity stolen? What number of people lost their jobs? What number of people had their families or friendships destroyed by secrets being spilled?

The dots are never connected beyond the admission of violations.
