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.

don't think it's a scam. forbes covered it (https://www.forbes.com/sites/zakdoffman/2020/03/20/stunning-...) although more neutrally than this title

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.
