SE Please start caring about your players privacy.

[WutWut]

The radio silence from Square Enix days later, on a vulnerability that has already leaked the privacy of thousands of players (there was a public pastebin list floating around one of the first days of this), is pretty damning in my eyes. Any other company would have made some sort of statement, rather than just quietly deleting a forum thread and leaving us to assume the worst. Not only has that data been leaked, its in a public, searchable database. That is insanity, and trying to slip this under the rug is completely unacceptable.

I am also tired, and this will probably be the tipping point that causes me to unsubscribe if it continues to go unaddressed. I refuse to give money to a corp that just doesn't care about the privacy of its users, which is what the radio silence says to me.

750 000 characters have been scanned to this day according to the developer of it.

That says enough lol, and that is with only 17 people scanning, once again according to the developer.

Now imagine when this goes in full release and is available to every single user that wants to get it.
