how is this much different from have I been pwnd?

haveibeenpwned does not publish data. They provide a service of checking whether you are part of breached data. They operate as a trustworthy middleman without disclosure or sharing of data to third parties.

If you mean they also collect data like that, then yes. But what they do with it is very different from a leak.
