I haven't checked the content myself, but this tg channel is usually legit

Thanks. I'm just getting a "Please open Telegram to view this post from @freedomf0x" message. Any way to access this without signing up for Telegram? The irony of giving my personal info to another 3rd party just to check if my personal info was leaked by a different party is too much...

And a couple other Sia portals it's available through:

Is there an alternative to ufile?

I've tried three different browsers and none can get the download to work. It's possible I'm blocking some tracking domain at the router-level that's integral to the download functioning.

Edit: Turns out I was blocking Google's captcha.

I was wondering this too, as ufile is really slow.

Someone needs to torrent all these files.

I doubt you'll find it anywhere else, it probably gets removed anywhere it gets posted due to violation of terms of service. I created a Telegram account and the Telegram link still works. I think that's your best bet.

Goes without saying, do not use the link above. Downloads malware.

Which link? The ufiles? Why does it go without saying? Not like stuff is instantly executed by downloading. All I got for my selected country was a plain text file.

What are you talking about? All the ufile links are just text files

Yeah I assume that the data is not actually hosted in Telegram so would be really nice with a direct link or magnet or similar.

There's no reason it can't be. Telegram limits individual files to 2GB but offers unlimited storage besides that.

Were there any leaks of Australian data? I can only see Austria in pastebin (spelling mangled as Austriaia)

So far it doesn't seem to be clear but to me it appears Australia so far isn't as widely distributed.

Earlier, it appeared Troy Hunt was sent both Australia and Austria:

https://gist.github.com/troyhunt/00b9aa28d486c9b81f18259fa80...

~196 MB vs ~34 MB respectively.

However, he later posted an update later expressing some similar curiosities:

https://gist.github.com/troyhunt/9a081cea0de6cbc63d93ebc0104...

The second gist is the one showing "Austriaia" (Austria, not Australia) and ~35 MB.

The file Austriaia.zip is data about Austria NOT Australia.

Speaking of Australia, who feels like handing over their driving license or passport to continue using the site?

Raidforums (where this list is originally from) also only has the Austrian data and no Australian data.

Thanks. Was just able to verify I'm not affected (deleted my acc years ago), but it's crazy how many of my friends' names plus phone number are on there.

Seems like all German accounts with 8-digit phone numbers are missing. Only 7-digit number accounts are shown.

I checked Telegram and they had a facebook.txt 3.6K file that won't download. Did they nerf it? I can't find the real file as I don't read Russian.

Edit: Nevermind I found the pastebin below.

From the initial tweet the source is this:

https://raidforums.com/Thread-SELLING-Free-FaceBook-533M-rec...

However, the comments in that forum suggest that it's not "free" and/or not there.

OT: Failed their hCaptcha probably 10-15 times before I gave up and just closed the tab. Hadn't seen it in the wild yet; I'm glad it's not pervasive (yet).

Re:533M Facebook users' phone numbers and personal data have... by Black101 on Saturday April 03, 2021 @11:41PM (#26686725)

for me Google's captcha is much harder to solve then hCaptcha...

You might give this a look. It's a FOSS browser extension that auto-solves google captchas by switching them to sight-impaired mode and using speech recognition.
