  "account": "The far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in Germany has faced a significant breach of its internal documents, with an estimated half a million confidential records leaked. This leaked archive, which spans 281 gigabytes, contains a variety of documents ranging from correspondence to organizational records. Each entry in the archive is classified, deduplicated, and indexed for easy access, search, citation, and verification. The severity of each document is assessed, categorized, and summarized, with some entries also revealing the count of identifiers they contain. The severity levels range from critical, which involves serious harm, crime, or violence, to low, which is considered marginal. The archive, funded independently, is solely intended for journalism, research, and public accountability purposes. Personal data is kept to a minimum, exposing classification and context but not bulk personal identifiers. Requests for removal of any material that poses a concrete risk to an individual are considered in good faith.",
