Imagine what could be done with this info.

though some stuff comes up it looks like most of the info has been cleared from the breach.
How did you remove your info from the Bing search? Quote from: CBCB on November 30, 2022, 03:28:42 PMThe problem is they don’t think they had a security breach, even though it was originally their code (or lack thereof) that allowed the pages to be scraped in the first place. They seem solid on blaming Bing. Despite me showing that I removed my own info from the results in minutes. So they could do the same for users in bulk. Or at least tell them about it and let us figure it out. But no their attitude about it has been really sketchy. They don’t take it seriously enough at all. Imagine you had a client with 1mil followers and your company just put their home address on search engines. True story about a Printavo user. You can even pull printavo staff personal info off the searches.I would much rather they get my 3% than someone else too but not giving the choice was a huge issue with the first announcement. Especially since they will still support and maintain it but won’t let everyone use it. That’s what makes it feel shady.

It’s not a rumour. Full invoices with customer data are still sitting online for all to see.Also for many, the ‘grandfathered’ plans that would be honoured ‘indefinitely’ went from $99 to $399. Way more than an extra $50. Plus the price acquisition by a venture capital firm. Not to mention the new payment processor announcement forcing people to use their system.They’ve got plenty of resources so hopefully we see some positive progress.
I looked up some invoices on Bing to see what you guys were talking about - there it is in plain sight, a competitor's pricing, customer contact info, payment status, mockup approval...way too much info to have out in the open for anyone to see. Completely unacceptable for that to still be viewable for however long it has been. I'm shocked it wasn't an 'all hands on deck' situation at Printavo, like set up a team to focus on it until it's done. I love the Podcasts, they seem like good guys, but wow that's a huge deal to just sweep under the rug.

I’m surprised they haven’t chimed in here yet to say it’s all Bing’s fault.
So put all the effort into removing bad press vs. fixing the problem. Makes sense
For anyone in a similar situation you have to disallow directory access in your .htaccess. Very simple.Relying on a noindex/nofollow is mega dumb dumb. You think Yandex cares about noindex? Yandex doesn't care.And neither does Bing apparently.
