      4chan wouldnt be it. Maybe breachfourms om the darkweb.

      Then you can go on the clear web and pretend to be a random user who happened to see the post and then post that somewhere.

      IMO the thing to do hypothetically is email and CC the news desks of the most legitimate newspapers you can think of with a link to the data.

      They will all run the story because if one of them will and the rest dont want to miss the train and they will all reach out to the company asking for comment after they document and verify that the data was publicly available.

          I mean how anonymous you need to be depends entirely on how legal the method you found the data is.

            Not really. I’ve heard stories about people getting sued after finding vulnerabilities. Of course the cases would get thrown out, but that’s assuming you can eat the mountains of legal fees it’ll take to actually get to a judge.

              Yep which is why you involve serious investigative journalists (what few are left). Not as good as going through a lawyer but they do have a tendency to protect their sources.
