Okay this looks big as far as data, but is there any information here that isnt (wasnt) already public? This looks like profile information. Isnt all this already available?

Real name and email associated with twitter account, which aren't always outwardly exposed. They would be considered PII.

10 GB of a database table sounds like a lot of records. Of course if this contained pictures or other media then this wouldnt be much. But I dont know for certain what data was leaked.
