I can search for email addresses too! Don't direct users to me because you failed to secure your web application.

It's nice to know someone who works at a company that handles credit card and bank payments would just post someones email address and photo. Granted this is all public since I posted on the Uservoice post, it was still unnecessary.

WePay is in no way related to IceBox. they're terrific guys; don't trash on their reputation.

i left WePay ages ago. also, our info is publicly displayed here:

http://www.iceboxpro.com/about/team

we're not a company. we're two nerds.

then you may wish to remove that email from your profile.

> we're not a company. we're two nerds.

Oh, so if you get sued for mishandling personal data or PII it'll be your personal responsibility rather than a company's?

If you were a company, you'd have insulation against lawsuits. Two nerds mean you and your family's assets are at risk; launching an app with such a spectacular security hole seriously puts the two of you and your families in danger.

The only thing you are right about is that WePay is terrific and I am glad you are not associated with them. How difficult it is to owe up to your mistakes instead of shooting the messenger?

You are clearly not very good at being nerds.

I think you misspelled www.iceboxamateur.com then?

@smeagol. First of all you fucked up. So stop acting so high and mighty and apologize to rkearney and everyone else who even thought about signing up for your product. Secondly, if this was just meant for you and your friends, don't go public with it and post it on HN. I highly recommend another hobby in a different field because clearly this one doesn't agree with you. Lastly, please stop calling yourself a nerd.
