via Shaun Nichols, writing at El Reg, comes this superb tell all - detailing Adobe Inc.'s (NASDAQ: ADBE) typically par-for-the-course security incompetence (anyone recollect Adobe Shockwave and Adobe Flash?): A tectonic-level data-leakage event with the resultant unleashing of 7,500,000 user records loose on our beloved interwebs.

"The exposed records include email addresses, account creation dates, details of products purchased, Creative Cloud subscription statuses, member IDs, countries of origin, subscription payment statuses, whether the user is an Adobe employee, and other bits of metadata." - via Shaun Nichols, scrivening at El Reg
