Where are the comments about how awful it is for people's private messages to be leaked? Or is this okay because the media told me these guys are the bad guys.

Honestly, the speculative and proactive accusations of hypocrisy are getting really tiresome. I wish people would stop.
If these guys are security researchers, then Julian Assange is the best security researcher of the world.
This all looks like normal politics to me.

"the media". You're not being honest, you either havent used the platform or are deliberately lying here. Either way a platform that freeley allows the organization of violent mobs has no place, and neither does anybody who supports it.
So logically then, Twitter and all its users should be cancelled for freely allowing Antifa to organize there.
Discussion of how it was done here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ParlerWatch/comments/kuqvs3/all_par... Edit: this Reddit post appears to be inaccurate. More details here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25725268
The linked post celebrates this saying they can share this data with law enforcement, but is it legal for them to pursue cases based on the evidence found in stolen data?

The ramifications of this will absolutely set a record for the future as the inevitable reverse will happen. People are forgetting that if they're ok with this sort of behavior now, it'll be difficult for them to argue-against or prevent the same behavior when their opposites are in control.

Is it? The article indicates at least some of this comes from merely incrementing an integer in the video URLs. > I am now crawling URLs of all videos uploaded to Parler. Sequentially from latest to oldest. VIDXXX.txt files coming up, 50k chunks, there will be 1.1M URLs total...
People have been sent to prison before for nothing more than fetching publicly available web pages by incrementing numbers in a URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weev
When you purposefully leak private data, you no longer get to hide behind the title "Security Researcher".
I think there's a real argument that this data is in the public interest.

Would it be any better if it was sent to Wikileaks and published there?
Huh? Wikileaks is where people go to publish evidence of government crimes, not Granddad's chats with his friends.
"researchers". Imagine what they'd be called if this was Reddit, Twitter or a non-conservative site they'd hacked.
