I'm not sure this is a FOE issue.

If I hacked IT4Change system and published all documents of yours
whether sensitive or no, would that be my right to FOE?

I was actually very surprised that Amazon took this into their Cloud
in the first place.  I am not surprised that they caved to pressure
however.

This is not to say that the documents are unavailable however.  Now
that folk are torrenting them, they will be available online for a
long, long time.
