Nats - TMM a leading billing/affiliate program for adult websites had their admistration password list hacked. Using these passwords allowed hackers to login to and perform duties as an admistrator on many adult websites who run the nats software. Hackers then wrote software to login to the breached websites and obtain certain information. Most of these attempts appear to be to retrieve emails of customers, which were then used or sold to email spammers. Although there is no initial evidence that any private data such as credit card information of subscribers was retrieved , it is clear to many that some information such as emails of the programs sub-contractors/affiliates was comprimised. The leading consesus would be if you bought porn from an adult website , you probably don't have anything to worry about other than a few more emails in your inbox, if you sell porn , the verdict is still out.
thats all mainstream needs to know , the disclosure to affiliates that was the biggest problem for many should prob be left in the industry to discuss
