Holy fuck - breaching EDGAR and getting away with <i>trading</i> on the information - and we are learning about this now?<p>To be fair, I&#x27;ve used EDGAR and it is &lt;cough&gt; very legacy. So no question it was completely compromised.<p>The mistake was putting non-public information on it in the first place. The risk assessment for private data exposure was extreme and my damp recollection is that the site warned explicitly of such?
