HotMail Sharing Member Email Addresses | |
|
||
| Time: 00:00 EST/05:00 GMT | News Source: E-Mail | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

Thanks to our good friend Chris P over at Lockergnome for sending us the link over at Peacefire. Anyway here is an excerpt: "After receiving complaints from HotMail users about junk mail in accounts that had never been "publicized" anywhere, we found that HotMail was sharing its member email addresses with InfoSpace.com, which makes the addresses available on its Web site where they can be "harvested" by third parties, including spammers. The statement on the InfoSpace Web site -- "For privacy, we don't show the full email addresses of people listed in our directories" -- turned out not to be correct, since HotMail provides its users with a search interface that allows them to harvest the email addresses of users listed on InfoSpace, including other HotMail users.
