                 Security researcher, Bob Diachenko, discovered a treasure trove of legal documents that were left unprotected on US-based Amazon AWS server. The documents themselves, numbering over 250,000, were designated as "not for publication". This is another notch in the belt for Amazon AWS servers; many large file discoveries and breaches have happened due to a hole in an Amazon based server. 

        The researcher's report can be found here.
