It seems like someone could do us all a public service by combining a few of these lists and making a very public and hard to take down website with them all listed. Create a forcing function for a replacement.

Not recommending anyone do this as it's obviously illegal, but..

What laws make it illegal for a regular person to republish a list of SSNs and corresponding names?

I still doubt much would come of it until someone began to target lawmakers with it.

I'm not sure if it is illegal since the US expends a lot of energy keeping privacy rights out of its civil rights.. But it would be a chore to process gdpr requests from dual citizens, etc.
