Tucker Carlson introduces Ryan Montgomery as someone who truly understands how to exploit the internet, and Montgomery wastes no time proving it. Within seconds of sitting down, he reveals he has Tucker's Social Security number — pulled from the National Public Data breach, which exposed 2.8 billion records and was operated by a Florida sheriff running a data broker website. [1] — Ryan Montgomery "In just 20 minutes of open-source research, Ryan Montgomery compiled Tucker Carlson's Social Security number, real signature from a warrant…" 01:40 From there, the revelations pile up: Tucker's real signature from a public warranty deed, his fishing and hunting licenses across three states, his Florida driver's license number, his 1995 phone number, and his Harley-Davidson motorcycle transaction including old and new plates. Tucker, who famously does not own a computer, is visibly stunned. Montgomery explains the breach means most Americans appear in the database roughly 15 times with their SSN exposed, and that anyone whose social is compromised should immediately freeze their credit at all three major bureaus — a process that is free, takes seconds to undo, and does not affect your credit score. The segment closes with Montgomery demonstrating reverse facial recognition, which uses 120 biometric measurements to identify a person from any photo — even a partial one from years ago — a capability previously available only to law enforcement now packaged as a consumer product through his company Pentester.

Reverse facial recognition doesn't match images — it takes 120 precise measurements of your face, making makeup, hair changes, or partial obscurement irrelevant. Consumer tools now give any individual the same facial-ID power previously reserved for law enforcement, meaning that wedding photo from 2019 or your kid's sports game photo could be used to identify and locate you or your children.
