Why the fuck are you posting this?

I want to apologize for this issue. The email that went out this
morning to non active affiliates of motive was a mistake caused by human error. We have been addressing this issue in-house.

It sucks that human error caused the info to go out en mass. I was frustrated as well and knew the reaction would be pretty harsh overall. But when you look at the info that was sent, it's really nothing more than you could get with a little digging on the Internet. Definitely no excuse, but I've already gotten 3 emails from Brendan personally in the spam of 20 minutes this morning. He's a straight up guy who runs a tight ship and is working to permanently correct the error.

Just my two cents as one of the affiliates who received the emails this morning.

BTW, Rabbit, why in the WORLD would you post someone else's info on a public forum like this? I'm assuming YOURS wasn't part of that list you decided to "share" with the world!
