It looks that way, verified by a few people on there, but, they also said this leading up to last night:

> “On a daily basis, we’re seeing 30 to 80 different claimed dumps come online, and most of these dumps are entirely fake and being used by other organizations to capture the attention that’s been built up through this release,” Bhatia said. “In total we’ve looked at over 100GB of data that’s been put out there. For example, I just now got a text message from our analysis team in Israel saying that the last dump they saw was 15 gigabytes. We’re still going through that, but for the most part it looks illegitimate and many of the files aren’t even readable.”

It’s interesting for a few reasons.

1. You don’t see a lot of stuff getting hacked like this anymore its usually for financial gain.
2. Company got completely owned not just their web servers.
3. People who used .gov and .mil email addresses to sign up.
4. Avid charged more money for people to “completely erase accounts” and didn’t do that.

Outside of that its more of a wake up call when companies advertise high security and anonymity it’s not true.

I would imagine if you’re planning on having an affair you should have some exit strategy that isn’t killing yourself since the chances of getting caught in modern times are fairly high.
