I feel the comparison part of the quote is helpful for context. Including it here for lazy people. (I do agree with you.) This marks a 34% increase from our previous report, which covered 2024, marking the largest single‑year jump we have ever recorded.

Honestly that part alone reminds me of the pastebin debacle where people just failed to consider that these things are in fact publicly accessible.
