It's uncertain if CloudFlare is responsible for the outage

Exposed.su, the website that’s been leaking the social security numbers, phone numbers, addresses and credit reports of several public figures, has gone offline. 

US authorities have been investigating the site that leaked the personal information of Michelle Obama, Bill Gates, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, Hilary Clinton, CIA Director John Brennan, and many others.

NetworkWorld reports that the domain name still points to CloudFlare’s name servers. However, it’s uncertain if CloudFlare is responsible for the outage.

A couple of days ago, users began reporting that Exposed.su was moved to CrimeOpen.com. However, none of the sites are currently accessible.

CrimeOpen.com displays a “domain seized by the DHS” notification, but according to a post on Pastebin, the notification might not be legitimate.

Last week, we learned that the credit reports published on the site were apparently stolen from annualcreditreport.com, a credit reporting website operated by Equifax, Experian and TransUnion.
