    Even more so given the fact that information gathered today has a way of rearing its ugly head years later.

    What's more, information gathered today has a way of coming back years later to bite you in the ass.

    All the more so becase the information gathered today may work/may have considerable effect years from now.

Doesn't this mean something to the effect that information gathered today can come back to bite you in the ass years later?

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 7 years ago

Ладно, но я думаю что вот в этом контексте это вряд ли то, что имеется ввиду. По-моему речь, скорее всего, о том, что эта информация может возникнуть в будущем, именно тогда, когда кое-кому неудобно, неприятно. Как вы думаете?

Маргарита Т.added a comment 7 years ago

Yes, you're right, Uly. "Выстрелить" means here to produce an effect , and it's going to be negative.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 7 years ago

Thank you, Margarita, in English we have the expression that something "can come back and bite you in the ass" I think it applies here, what do you think?

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 7 years ago

Thank you! That's very helpful 👍🏼😉🤚🏼

Хотя в ТОМ контексте может быть.

Jane Leshadded a comment 7 years ago

Hi Uly! You are totally right, in this context the meaning is kinda negative. "To come and bite in the ass" sounds cool, love that! 😆

Igor Yurchenkoadded a comment 7 years ago

фраза по-русски звучит немного странно на мой вкус. я не вижу здесь явно негативного эффекта. с таким же успехом это может означать "оказаться очень полезной" или даже "принести много денег".

Jane Leshadded a comment 7 years ago

Igor, ну тут да, кто как видит ситуацию. Однозначно пожалуй не скажешь без контекста. Но лично для меня, первое что в голову пришло - информация раскроется, о ней узнают в неподходящий момент.

Igor Yurchenkoadded a comment 7 years ago

в данном контексте "come back and bite you in the ass" идеальный вариант
