Quote - So you are comparing a "Site Wide Change in "Policy"..to a few "Claims" of wrong doings regarding Spam?
I'll spell this out as simply as I can: If Rendo cannot be trusted to keep your email info private, then how can you trust them to keep your credit card transaction info private? Yes, my identity information and credit card risk is a lot more important than the thumbnail rules change was. So is yours. It deserves at least as much attention, and diligent and rapid response.
Seems to me this concern is being completely blown off by site management, with a fair amount of help from certain users. This distresses me very deeply. If the obvious happened here (rendo gave/sold email info), doesn't it bother anyone that the info was given/sold to ID theft scammers, from the text of some of these spams??
It may be that a more reassuring response is forthcoming, but I'm not expecting one. Very unhappy about this.
Edit: "reassuring" meaning what steps were taken to investigate, and more than one or two sentences. Typical due diligence stuff you'd expect from any professional company, not a blanket "nuh uh, wasn't us!"
