Social security numbers shouldn’t be emailed in the first place. That data was insecure from the moment the send button was clicked.

Publishing it _again_ is only marginally stupider than sending it in the first place.

Many of the Social Security numbers in these emails were sent to Jeb Bush, not by him.

That’s kind of my point. The original sender compromised the info.

A) These emails go back to 1999. Many people had no idea email was not secure at that time.

B) If I send private information to you in an insecure manner, and then you BROADCAST IT, then I definitely have cause to be mad at you.
