Hey Barrett,
Hope this mail finds you, and finds you well. Just curious to know if you would have any idea why my hacked hotmail account (rmgildner@hotmail.com) is listed among the accounts in the stratfor dump (#602934 in the excel doc). The account was hacked sometime last May and I have not been able to access it despite by best attempts. Are they using hacked account for some reason?
Also, you should know (if you don't already) that Stratfor regularly recruits from academic departments at Universities across the U.S. (I can forward you emails if you are interested). I am finishing up a Ph.D. in Latin American History at UT-Austin, and every couple of years, a recruitment email shows up on the departmental listserve. Pardon my ignorance, but I had no idea that they were such swine.
Anyway, kudos to you and everyone else involved. Keep up the good work. Keep safe. And if you can provide any information on why my hacked account is listed in their database, it would be greatly appreciated.
Very best, Matt
