Throwaway account for obvious reasons. Does anyone have a link to the leaked data?

At this point avoiding links is pointless as the source code will be essentially public knowledge in matter of days/weeks. Damage control is the only strategy left. The sooner security researchers outside Microsoft can start analyzing and reporting vulnerabilities, the better.

Some of the leaked data seems to currently only be accessible on a https://www.betaarchive.com/ , but your account won't be able to access it for a month or so.
Not understanding why this comment needs a throwaway account?
Maybe he doesn't actually want it to research purposes, and actually wants a quick and easy way to find it for other less noble purposes.

He never actually stated he wanted it for security, just left it easy to imply.
