Cause of death: the autopsy
6 of 20 datasets held 'active' records expired more than 90 days, in five-figure counts in three. But the buyers who pay for verification use live board lookups, not bulk files, so the trap hurts free-dump users, not payers.
The numbers
None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.
Could rise again if
The report left no way back.
