You must be crazy.
Acacia is made up of lawyers.
They KNOW the consequences of purchasing stolen property.
They KNOW that if they did this, it WOULD come out in court and implicate their company in much worse criminal charges - most likely felonies, given the value of such a list.
They also did NOT hack into anyone's server and steal a list - these guys aren't even sure whether their patents cover Flash or live video, but you expect them to be advanced enough to hack into (or hire someone to hack into) a secure server?
Stop with the wishful thinking and use some COMMON SENSE - although I know that's in short supply on GFY...
Acacia did NOT buy a stolen list, or hack into anyone's server and steal it themselves. They were GIVEN a list.

Carrie,
I thought you were smarter than the post above.
Look, if Acacia bought a list they aren't going to buy it from someone who sais "I stole/hacked it from so & so".
And do you REALLY think Acacia is above buying or trading for industry contact lists from random Joe's?
You mention they are made up of a group of lawers like that makes them a fine upstanding reputable company.
That just means they know how to properly cover their asses with any decision they make.
