    Seeing as they didnt fix their site after posting it over there thought id post it here.

    Here's SOME of the stuff.. All peoples information

    SNIPPED: links to users personal information from that site. User permabanned from security for posting illegal material. I realise we dont have a rule to cover disclosure yet but we do have a rule to cover illegla actions. This users' actions are a breach of privacy for the members of those sites and posting here is more showboating than opening an issue for discussion.

    The post above has been heavily edited to remove links to personal information belonging to the customers of two irish websites that the poster decided to post online.

    This issue has been brought to the attention of the boards.ie staff who are now dealing with it and the user has been permabanned from boards.ie for posting illegal material (the first in the list of things a new user agrees NOT to do when signing up to boards).

    Responsible Disclosure is a good thing as long as the emphasis is on "responsible". The post by the user above was not disclosure, it was invasion of privacy and bragging of an illegal act. The posters actions in no way shape or form could ever be described as responsible.

    With the permission of the boards.ie staff I have re-approved this thread in its edited form along with this note of the actions taken so that there can be no doubt to anyone reading the security forum what the moderators' and boards.ie's stance is on this kind of material.
