You know about as much as I do...

A lot has happened since my last update in the saga of Eccieleaks.com and it's mission to destroy anyone associated with Eccie.net. First, the postings on Eccieleaks had really dwindled; the stolen reviews were 3 months out-of-date and the stolen chat logs were 14 months old. There were leakers asking for the outings of Eccie participants whose information had already been posted some time ago?! Maybe the search feature doesn't work correctly. Then the whole site went down starting on April 29th and is still down as I type this update. About the same time, CBS did a news story on Eccie which generated a lot of excitement in the hobby world and a lot of comments on the CBS website, but nothing else of any importance. Eccie.net web traffic increased by a huge amount, boosting the value of the website. Someone claiming to represent the leakers started a new blog with occasional posts. The first few posts were mostly whining about some hacker and begging the authorities to protect them. Other than making the hacker a big hero, this didn't seem to change anything. In the latest posts, they switched to mostly bloviated boasts about their own hacking skills. Judging from the emails and comments that I have received, the few readers that read the blog come away either bored or confused.

At this point, I am not sure when the site will return. Allowing for the unlikely event that it does not come back, I temporarily removed some of the personal data about leakers from the "Who are the leakers?" page as a sign of good faith. If they continue (as I expect them to), I will replace the page with a new, updated version. If they ever develop a conscience and quit all together, I will be happy to take down the whole blog. For now, I would just like to add some clarifications and conclusions to this summary:

1) The leakers are doing their best to support my previous statement on the "What have they accomplished?" page. Everything they do to attack Eccie seems to backfire and Eccie is doing better than ever. They attempt to spin their failures as accomplishments on the new blog, but their arguments are hilarious. After over two years of stalking, hacking, spamming, and blackmail, they have managed to accomplish only two things:
   a) Hurt children and other innocent victims
   b) Build a permanent repository for underage provider information

2) As I have stated so many times before, one cannot trust anything that the leakers post. In responses to my comments on Eccieleaks, the leakers had claimed that they never hacked Eccie but received information from a "disgruntled employee" of Eccie. On the new blog, posters who claim to be leakers brag about hacking Eccie.net. Which is it? It can't be both. This is so typical of the complete disregard that leakers have for logic or truth.

3) Those of us that can actually read were also amused that they finally realized that the partnership that they were obsessing over was dissolved a long time ago. Unfortunately, those of us who have a life don't have time to point out the bleeding obvious to people who have nothing better to do than cash a disability check or tow people's cars.

4) I have never posted on the new eccieleaks blog. Any posts from "The Plumber" are fabricated.

5) I have no idea what or where the "UTR site" is. Some have asked if it refers to Horndogs.info, but I don't think that it does. It might not even exists. Other than those few sociopaths that started Eccieleaks and the posters that are seeking out underage providers, there isn't anyone who would be interested in it. As long as they keep everything to themselves and leave the normal folks alone, I don't care if they have a hundred secret websites. I have heard that they are also building a secret clubhouse and they have secret decoder rings that not only unscramble the coded messages, but they protect you from cooties, too.
