80 GB zip file... Thats likely over 150 when decompressed, and the amount of personal data (wich is usually just text) could include basically everyones personal data, or all company secrets including source code and everything. Or maybe even both...
People are used to gigantic shit files nowadays, but text is very small, without pictures, audio or videos this could be a unholy amount of confidential material.
Would be bad.
It could be 90GB it could be a terrabyte.
