Internet Archive Was Exposing User Email Addresses for Years Before Recent Breach
(theintercept.com)
Information about data breaches, data leaks, ransomware attacks, and other related stories.
Was this somehow not common knowledge? An upload always has an email associated with it publicly.
the article claims this:
despite its claims that it does not share uploader email addresses with anyone.
I don't know how does this feature work
Every submission to the archive has metadata associated with it, one of those pieces of metadata is the email of the uploader. You can look it up, search by it, etc. I question that claim from the article. I've never seen IA claim this information isn't publicly available.
