It's asking for my email to check if my census data has been leaked? Email isn't even shown as a field in the leaked records. Is this site just harvesting emails?

Yea I think it is. It’s the second one I’ve seen like this on HN. Expect to see some emails come in shortly if you checked.

Are we really still using Forbes as evidence? Forbes is blogspam. I need a much more credible source before handing over my email to this site.
