i have never spoken through email, icq or phone with anyone at matrix. i don't know 'em.
i WOULD like it if their database was stolen. even if it's only a small chance, if it was think of how acacia would look at that point having to prove they didn't know their info was stolen!

Exactly.
If it was a stolen database though it needs proof. That means unplugging that server now and having it analyzed by a security company before anything can be done to it.
If the security analisys of the server can prove hacking and if matrix can prove they didn't give the list to acacia and if it can be proven that the info matches the matrix database it's possible all these letters can be thrown out and at that point acacia would not be able to go after the webmasters that are proven to be from matrix's list.
There is a lot of legal issues here. They should be taken care of the right way.
This is matrix's chance to shove their contract and all of ours up acacia's ass legally if what Norman is saying is true.
