I demand reimbursement. At $30 per year, that works out to approximately $0.90 of money STOLEN from each of us.
You may expect a letter from my lawyer.

They do 100% need to extend our passes to make up for this. I don't care if someone has the hash for the email I used, but if I don't get my pass extended then I will never pay for another year.

I'm honestly not expecting shit. They've had days to post anything and there isn't even a news post after the site came back up. I'm not expecting a email sucking my dick or asking for forgiveness or anything, but any sort of public post beyond

Would be nice

The hacker said that there wasn't any payment information. Only hashes for the emails, not even the email addresses themselves. So it really isn't worth being concerned over.

How does that work? They send out expiry emails long after a purchase. Are they pre-scheduled?

I saw him post that he didn't have the emails but I imagine it was because he didn't grab them and not because they weren't there.
The verification system hashes emails AFAIK.

The payments are done through Stripe, there's no way the hacker would have anyone's credit card info. People are asking about the emails linked to their passes. And it's probably not a huge deal anyway but it's still not a good look for the mods. The lack of communication about all of it was pretty terrible.

This is the common sense solution to the problem.

That's the big issue because he still has the information, he just hasn't published it. Though if you practice basic OpSec, it shouldn't be an issue.

>That's the big issue because he still has the information
He has claimed to not have it, which would mean that he didn't grab it, he grabbed it and deleted it, or he still has it and is lying. And really only the last one of those options is provable.

It's a good lesson to never use your personal address for this stuff. Hell, even if your deets did get leaked, they couldn't link you to any posts.

04/26/25(Sat)20:03:26 No.136206 The other thing to consider is that they were in the process of migrating the data, but despite the number of passes sold over the years, they had only recently made the purchase of the new servers. Why didn't the move the critical stuff over first? We all would have accepted a couple of days of downtime vs. a week and a half.
