Where to download breached dbs legally? (self.cybersecurity)

I found this tool on github:

https://github.com/hmaverickadams/breach-parse

and there is also h8mai, but just wondering if there are any other places I could go to download more dbs for offline research? I am willing to pay a small fee, but I want a site that isn't shady and is legitimate for research.

There have been several sites in the past that allowed you to download confirmed breached dbs and not sites like raidforums.

There is a list of laws here: https://www.ncsl.org/technology-and-communication/security-breach-notification-laws
