Wonder where this data can be found?
I'd be interested if my wife's info was in it .
Anyone have a magnet link?

Interesting. I expect that no significant papers would actually cite this information directly or explicitly, but I could certainly see the possibility that some researchers will be able to get grants by suggesting that they "know" that they'll get good results if they study such-and-such details of a population thanks to this. One possible silver lining of a breach like this.
