              Think AVN the august bible of the industry will do an investigative piece on how their list of webmasters got into the hands of Acacia? AVN either sold it to them or somebody who bought AVN's list resold it to Acacia.
              Are you absolutely sure? Can these two people come forward in this post and attest to that?

                    I know when I was at the last internext I didn't give them my correct info.

                    Too much talk of Acacia having a booth before the last show.

                    I figured they'd end up with the list.

                        this is definite because the guy told me when he registered for Internext I guess there was a place on the form where they want you to describe/name your company position and he made up some bogus title like head fluffer or some shit, remembers it distinctly, and sure enough whatever the bogus title he made up was, it's on the Acacia mailing he received.

                          Is a perk of Internext that anyone with a booth gets a copy of the sign ins?

                          Has anyone asked AVN about this?

                          I'm almost in denial. I hate to think that AVN 1) sells it's list to anyone 2) could let Acacia get a hold of our information

                          These guys have got to post on here and speak for themselves.

                              I have a feeling they are using more then one source to blanket mail all these webmasters. Disturbing to say the least.

                                  Before I go ape shit on AVN - like to see some proof - or at least have AVN look into it.

                                  I would hate to see it as one of our own selling out - something about pieces of silver ... Judas??

                                        I don't think that Internext would give their list to Acacia. It is the most important asset they have as a TradeShow Company. More likely the list came from someone else, who may have purchased or made a deal for their list at some time in the past.

                                        BTW - our Cybernet list is NOT for sale...... or trade, or anything else!

                                            just got my letter in the mail today. Funny thing is, I have never had any videos, streamed any videos, owned any paysites, etc. They are barking up the wrong tree on this end..

                                                AVN cares more about there REAL customers, the only school porn Giants.... the video and magazine people. The Vivids, the Hustlers, etc.

                                                These are the people who want to run all the Internet Turks out of business.... and AVN is helping!!! They want to see the internet cotnroled by the same few Giants who control the video/magazine traditional porn world!!

                                                All of you small guys with free sites, TGPs, people with small pay sites are all taking money from these guys pockets!!

                                                    get your tongue out of AVN's ass. It's possible AVN was duped into selling a list, not like Acacia would go 'Hey we're Acacia, we're out to rape the porn industry, how much for a list of the names and addresses of our next victims?'.

                                                    There is NO doubt where Acacia got my friend's info from, NONE, ZERO, NADA, ZILCH - unknowingly by making up a phoney title for himself my friend seeded that mailing list. How Acacia got the list - ask AVN who they've sold their list to or if somebody could have gotten their list through other means.

                                                      well I just got mine and I didn't go to internext.. I can't say for sure that I didn't fill out any forms on their page.. I can't remember did you have to sgin up to anything to view info about internext?

                                                      I kinda figure they got my info from the forums, however my sites are not listed on the letter... just my name.

                                                        This was briefly mentioned already but they could have got the information from scanning badges and/or buying a list from someone who was scanning badges.

                                                        When you fill out the form to get a badge all information that you give up is given to anyone that leases a badge scanner and pays for the information.

                                                        That would be why I have never put any information other than an email addy on there

                                                            There's a pain you're receding

                                                            A distance ship, smoke on the horizon

                                                            You are only coming thru in waves

                                                            Youre lips move but i can't hear what you're saying

                                                            When i was a child i had a ferver

                                                            My hands felt just like two balloons

                                                            No i've got that feeling once again

                                                            I can't explain, you would not understand

                                                            This is not how i'm

                                                            I have become comfotably numb
                                                            I stay busy.

                                                                I worked for a computer parts wholesaler and when I just started, they had just comeback from comdex where they had a booth. I was given a print out of basically ever person that was at the show. I cold called on that list for a couple months, made some good $$ too . I think it was given to them for having a booth , internext maybe the same way or if it is a avn list maybe they sold it. They are a company here to make money, I spoke about this yesterday these adult newstype companies arent news sources they are marketing engines. Its business not personal.

                                                                  Finally someone who is thinking on his feet. AVN offered scanners to the company I went to internext with last year. All the ID's had a bar code on it and if you wanted to rent the bar code scanner you could get a list of everyone that visited your booth.

                                                                  Check your ID Badges for internext the bar code is there.

                                                                  Not saying this is what happened but definetly a good lead on what could have happened.

                                                                  Problem would be at this point it could have been any vendor there.

                                                                                      As I said in earlier posts, my friend only told he where he believed his information came from. Neither he nor I know or have any information how that information then came into Acacia's hands. I questioned him, cross examined him if u will, as to why he was so sure he knew where Acacia's information for him came from. He suggested I tell his story on GFY so other webmasters would know and others might share their information. He is NOT a webmaster, he went to a show in another capacity. I would never say something is a FACT without knowing that fact to be 100% true. Which is why when my ICQ went off and people messaged me 'So you're saying *** gave up webmasters to Acacia, I told them 'No, that's not necessarly so, I didn't say that, there are a bunch of ways Acacia could have got the info.' I am a Supreme Court judge's son, and a brother to another Supreme Court judge, I know the law by osmosis.

                                                                                      This is a discussion board where relevant information to the Adult Internet community is discussed from time to time. I posted at the suggestion of my friend, his story, his opinion where Acacia got the information to contact him, he is a honest as they come, has no grudges to bear against anybody in this industry, but knowing how important this issue is to so many people suggested I share his story by posting it on GFY.
