Buzzfeed News is fairly well respected among people who don’t immediately blow off everything with the Buzzfeed name attached. Arguably more respected than TechCrunch.
I know, who would have thought that CBP* could possibly have leaked a large database of information about people that they accumulated without consent? Whoever could have predicted this.
* The leak occurred when that data left CBP controlled systems. That the company benefiting from that first leak also had weak network security is an _additional_ criminal (in my mind, though probably not in the US political system) act.
