Yeeeeah, that's not how it works lol. Anyone who does offensive security for more than 5 minutes understands how little protection they have. And true anonymity is much, much harder than you think.

If you act in certain ways, you will probably not get in trouble but I have a lawyer on retainer for a reason lol

The harsh truth is you aren't protecting anything by doing this, because you can't control how (or if!) they fix the problem. All you're doing by accessing the data is for-real committing a felony, and that is an incredibly stupid thing to do.

You take steps that match the threat model - if it’s important enough to you.

Not everything found is.

Some things are.
