Matrix/Acacia

There's enough circumstancial evidence out there to convince me that Matrix is ONE of the databases they have. I'm not convinced that it is the only one.

And it may indeed not have been given to them as part of the settlement or even with the knowledge of the principles.

That mailer was essentially spam. It was totally untargeted and unverified. It was designed to lighten the wallets of those who scare easily. It was an ad, not a legal document.

So it is likely they bought that list. If not as part of a settlement, it could've potentially been purchased from anyone with access to a juicy webmaster database. We all know how customer lists and such get out there. Under the table deals for customer data aren't tough at all to find in this industry.

Anything is possible. My gut instinct is still either that someone is further into bed with these guys than we know or someone gave up their customer data to get a better deal.
