housands may be open to blackmail

By Nick Farrell: Friday, 28 December 2007, 7:22 PM

AN INTERWEB PORN company which runs thousands of sites that promise discrete content has been handing customer details to hackers.

Too Much Media, which is based in New Jersey, has acknowledged that hundreds of thousands of its customers' personal details could have been stolen.

Apparently, the hackers got hold of email addresses which means that customers are currently being bombarded with spam. A company spokesman, John Albright, confirmed that no credit card information was taken.

However Too Much Media has not exactly been forthcoming about the attack which happened in October.

Albright claimed that an investigation was underway to the cause and level of the security breach. But although it happened in October the company still has not worked out how it happened.

The hack was spotted by a web hosting outfit OC-3 Networks, which apparently hosts more than 40 per cent of adult sites.

A spokesmman told the LA Daily News , said that during a monthly security check it was noticed that the same IP address was repeatedly trying to access the company's software.

The company worked out that someone had accessed the user name and password assigned to the Too Much Media.

Albright said that Too Much Media will prosecute anyone responsible for any breach of its servers and programs.

However the breach has shocked the online adult industry. Online porn sites depend on anonymity and there are grave concerns when its services leave customers open to blackmail.

According to the Daily News there is a fear that there could be a backlash against such sites as people become frightened that they will be identified. µ

This is very good proof of just how little the media has any idea what's going on (including the media feeder "minusonebit")

NATS is not a portal, JohnA is an owner, not just a spokesman, no one host has 40% of the industry, and rocked the adult industry??

No one seems to care half as much as minusoneclue or the media.

John should have his attorney's deal with Nick Farrell regarding that misleading statement.

TheDoc · 12-29-2007, 08:59 AM

Isn't The Inquirer a joke / bs news source that often spins things in an off way?

I have only skimmed over it but I always thought it was joke trash news, so people didn't take it seriously. I could be wrong though

Yes, a fact showered with a plethora of fiction.
Reminds me of another news story called "the liberation of Iraq".

Email addresses are hardly private info. The only people "harmed" were webmasters getting spam -- not the public at large. I know you're fucking dumb, but try not to pile it on so thick. Do you know what I did when I found out I was getting the spam? I deleted the mail account I created for that affiliate and my issue ended in 30 seconds.

The article screams 10% facts 90% fiction.
