I am not arguing here- just simply stating the facts.
The fact that you hold your models safety higher than making money with more affiliates is your option, again I am just stating what the new 2257 regs state.

and that is that all US based webmasters must have copies of 2257 records from their sponsors, even Canadian and offshore companies.
I want to say that I'm not taking a job at your company, I think it's brilliant. So don't take what I say the wrong way.

Yes, it is the law. You are correct. I'm just not going to obey it, in terms of giving webmasters (or a service) that information, even if it's altered. I don't want someone having so much as the models real name. Nada. It's just not safe. I will keep the data and if the US government wants hop a plane to come and inspect it, my door is always open to them, during regular business hours, Thai time.

Regarding banks, they do get compromised from time to time. All it takes in this case is once. In fact, just a few weeks ago was one of the largest hacks on credit card data ever with millions of peoples data stolen. It happens.

I'm not greedy. That extra few grand I may make from some die hard American webmasters simply isn't worth it. I make enough as is and truth be told, the biggest webmasters are usually not American to begin with.

With all that said, I do think you have a great service. It's just not for me.
