Looks like the 503 Errors with Firefox are really slowing down discussions.
The article mentioned that the new number range search feature in Google could be particularly dangerous. Maybe I'm a little naive... why is it so dangerous?
Suppose: 1. you trust some website to be secure with the credit card info you send to them. 2. disgruntled employee dumps list of customers' info into plaintext file upon firing, then copies and pastes it all over the web.
Also, I think some of those pages are old, stale lists of previously compromised cards compiled by the people that did the compromising.

For example. Not saying this is the only way to find these, but it certainly is an interesting application of Google.

I mean, with security through obscurity, you have to at least make sure it's not making it to freaking google.
