It takes some bad news to reach mainstream.

Ya know...

All of that is good news really.
I think people care less about the email breech, considering TMM's statements about CC info not being breached.

It tells buyers with NATS based sites that even though that system was hacked the hackers were not good enough to gather CC info.

All in all it could help rather than hinder the business as publicity.

Keep up the good work bone head.

If I were TMM thats what I would be saying anyways, but the text being passed around to the media says the same thing nearly. I would just spin it to my advantage.

I usually charge for such advice though...

[CC]

And this helps those of us who are actually IN THIS INDUSTRY how?

[TheDoc]

I agree with AlienQ 100%..

Porn buying males aren't going to read this in a negative way. Spam for porn buyers has always been a major problem. If 1/3 of that problem is gone and all credit card data was secure. That's all positive news.

In a business always getting slammed by the media, this has acually turned into some great publicity for our industry.

And this helps those of us who are actually IN THIS INDUSTRY how?

As AlienQ said, the industry's message should focus on the fact that cc data was not compromised - positive spin...

Holy shit, Im starting to think you are Johns fake sig, because this article is great news. Great to know that the hackers couldnt get cc info and that Nats is taking a stand against these scum thiefs, oh yeah include yourself in the group just stated. I personally want to thank NATS for taking care of biz and not letting these scumbags off the hook. I look forward to hearing who exactly we have to thank for this breach.
