i guess that all depends on what you consider "lots"
is millions of emails "lots" ?
i would consider millions of anything lots
I think some of the issues are being glossed over because nats still hasnt disclosed it to us.
when i first noticed a problem with nats and spam it wasnt from signing up as a surfer it was from signing up as an affiliate so i think the theory that only the surfers emails and data was stolen is false. I am pretty sure that affiliate data was stolen, this was likely done quickly , its likely not as easy to spot for sponsors because the hackers used software to repeatdely monitor a sponsors "surfer signups" , for affiliates there wouldnt be a need to check multiple times daily it would throw off too many red flags..
i dont think this was done by someone with no knowledge of the software , it was either an ex-nats employee , someone with the source code or at the very least a sponsor who bought nats ( just my theory/opinion based on what little evidence has been released )
