This could be seen as a life-endangering move, and the data company should be held reliable, not just for this act, but also for any problems their victims have to endure.

They sold the data fully understanding what it could be used for. I imagine the deal brokered was by a MAGA supporter who works with this data company.

People like that belong behind bars. They are a danger to humans.
