Gawker Media Has Compromised Your Personal Data
Malatron at A Blog Soup uncovered a major security flaw with Gawker Comments. First AOL, now Gawker Media. Calacanis and Denton can't do anything without one copying the other. But fear not, abused reader. Broken windows are often a cellar door of inspiration and if you ever registered an email address on a GM blog then you're in luck. Stay tuned for your Daily YM/ABS email newsletter landing in your inbox soon. Subject matter still undecided. I'm leaning towards something on crime.
All paid emails will be clearly labeled "exasperated."
UPDATE: Read the comments. Lockhart Steele acknowledges Gawker Media staff knew about the security flaw in August 2006 but decided not to inform their readers of it. Wow, that is unconsciousable. It's easy to say "there's nothing to see here, folks" when you're not being transparent. I'll try to get Consumerist on the case.
