yes, that is more or less the files from the Maxis dump.

its csv files. postpaid is mark with post_* and prepaid with pre_*

each file contains ~1 million records. Compared to the rest of the telcos, Only the maxis file is broken down this way ie ~1 million records in each file.

The reason is simple - excel has a ~1 million row limit.

That list however is incomplete. The Maxis dump floating around is corrupted. We had to fix the zip archive to get all the data out. From the looks of the pastebin dump, they skipped the corrupted files.

not really, the others probably have better ways of manipulating the files, so they are able to dump > 10 million lines in a single file.

can anybody confirm if the site has been blocked by mcmc? Am getting a service unavailable without google dns.

Well, i did advise him against putting up the site. Honestly we did consider setting up a cross check site when we first discovered the data breach, but end of the day, its not our data to manipulate. Also, the information contained in data is not the usual email/password that can be easily changed.

yes, the affected party has the right, but the check site should be hosted or set up either by the data owners (each telco) or a centralized agency.

yes, we were pushing for the telcos to make a statement, but they turned around and said its under investigation so they can't comment.

we considered putting it up a similar check site when we first got the data, but its still 'stolen' data, so we contacted the telcos again to request for their permission, and again it got turned down.

so yes, keith is the good guy here, but as i had mentioned to him a few weeks back, its a bit of a walking on egg shell situation here which could go either way.
