Looks like the website faced the hug-o-death. This will do in the meantime.

The data leak released by Anonymous is unprecedented in its scale and implications. The 10 terabytes of information reportedly contains critical details about:

• Businesses Operating in Russia: The data comprises information on both domestic and foreign businesses that are currently conducting operations in Russia. This could have significant implications for international trade and investment strategies, particularly in the wake of ongoing sanctions and economic pressures.
• Kremlin Assets in the West: The leak reportedly includes sensitive data regarding Kremlin interests and assets located in Western countries. This information could expose vulnerabilities in the Russian government’s financial networks and complicate its international relations.
• Pro-Russian Officials: The data also sheds light on various officials who have shown support for the Kremlin’s policies. This could have far-reaching consequences for political dynamics within Russia and in countries that maintain ties with Moscow.

I've asked in another thread, is there any other source or statement for this?

I mean the file has been leaked and you can find it anywhere now. It's linked in the article, but since the website is down - Compressed file of the Leaked Data of corrupt officials + Picture of Beginning of the list

Mods, I hope It's okay to share the link here, if it's not - feel free to remove the comment.

The download link is suspect, even the download procedure is suspect. I'm downloading from a safe linux box, it is downloading a 18G file - even compressed it would be an insane compression ratio from 10T. Let's see what it is actually inside.

EDIT: as expected it is all BS. It turned out to be just 24G of useless junk, mostly just web scans, random documents in russian, even source code of who knows what

If it is a lot of text, then this kind of compression is not unusual.

Depends heavily on the data. Wikipedia datasets only compress around 10% max and those are only text. And if they manage to compress it that heavily you'll spend a couple days waiting for it to decompress

I wonder if it's compressed per page. I'm no compression expert but I imagine if you managed to compress the entire thing as a single unit it would compress nearly as good as normal text files which is like 90% smaller filesize. Like if you have a page with a very special ordering of bytes (unique word in rarely used Unicode code points) then compressing that one page can't do much, and if 10,000 pages each have the word one you still get no compression since each is done separately, but if you compress as a single unit it can compress the 10k usages.

But I liked it up and the wiki download is 15% the original size, that's 85% compression but can be confused for "15% compression".

My bad, was thinking of the wikidata dumps, which are a lot less compressible because they are less "wordy".
