Ask to see their bank account transactions.
If the data is out there then they should have no problem showing you.
The police have a pretty low hanging bar to getting banking information and the police often seem to ignore the laws for the privileges of using their badges as leverage over private industry and companies. And they use that banking access to fuck with people that don't like them.
That shit is not "private."
But banks/credit unions/companies would rather sell you twice than tell you that.
Not that I disagree with the general mindset but, this isn't a valid comparison because its unequal. It's misinterpreting what those people are saying. There is a difference between giving your landlord a spare key and hanging that spare key on the community bulletin board.
What people really mean when they say "it's already out there" is that people with the skillset or job to obtain the data have the ability to, not that the everyday person has the ability to. It's not unknown the information is already out there, but that doesn't mean that you would want to just publicly disclose the info.
