You may have misunderstood my sentence, perhaps is could have been worded better.
I was talking about databases that MultiXXX controlled, not implying that you had possession of or controlled them. A simple matter of grammar - I should have phrased it better.

I did say there was evidence the sites had been hacked. As I have said many times before I am no hacker.
I am not sure how anyone can make a threat (implied or otherwise) when stating known facts. If LEO's or Officers of the court review this information there are many cases that could be made from it, Legal Actions.

You stated
Do they know their information is being distributed on the net and will soon end up in the hands of people that may choose to pursue legal actions both against you and them?
To my mind, this seemed and read like an implied threat. Others may have read it differently but I can only call it as I see it from my perspective.

Perhaps it is a simple misunderstanding, perhaps it isn't. I stand by my statements and have no plans to apologize for them or retract them. I just find it hard to believe that what I posted was taken so far out of context.

You were not taken out of context and at no time did I accuse you of impropriety. I merely pointed out the ramifications of handling data that was tainted.

It is unfortunate that you would look upon this as unacceptable AK. We were just beginning to feel comfortable with you again.

If you want me to be frank with you, I completely agree with your stated aims to wipe out piracy. However I have always been uncomfortable with and disagree with the releases of data that you guys have made via Twitter and other means.
I have no issues with your end goal, it's just the way you've presented yourselves as getting there that I have reservations about.
There's also a favourite Humphrey Appleby quote that I like to recant "He that would keep a secret must keep it secret that he hath a secret to keep.".
