This is a false and defamatory. I (Chris Vickery) have never ransomed any data. I have protected the private data of hundreds of millions. Post some evidence or retract your comment.


I never said "you" (assuming it's really you, new account and all) ransomed the "data" specifically, but I do know of two instances where you threatened companies to go to their customers and/or the FTC unless they met your specific demands.


Did those specific demands pretty much total up to "fix the problem in a non-braindead way"?


jsjohnst- I've posted on my twitter account (@vickerysec) to verify that this is indeed me. Now, please explain the two situations you refer to. I vehemently deny the accusation and would love to know the origin of those false claims.
