The part of that that I don't get is how a new user could have the same ID as an old (truncated) user since "our system created new records for them, with primary keys generated from the existing sequence (PostgreSQL does not reset id sequences on truncate)."

Do they mean that the only potentially exposed accounts are those that signed up after the database was restored?
