Tiny Brontosaurus posted:Yeah I heard but I'm not even looking. gently caress it. I have avs off anyway because that poo poo's annoying. An admin doxxed the credit card that bought my account and my IP info and is passing it around on offsites because they're mad at some person I'm not who was apparently getting them salty before I had so much as a facebook account. I get a pm inbox full of rape and death threats and gore but it's not actionable because "you can't prove anything." I'm not putting my own money into this shithole. FactsAreUseless posted:No mods or admins have access to your credit card information, or any other user's. I just want to make sure everyone knows this. We do not see this information at all ever. It is not associated with your account. There are actual federal regulations dealing with how CC information is handled. negromancer posted:As someone who worked at Steadfast (where the servers for this site are housed), that isn't true at all. Subjunctive posted:How would the hosting provider know? Are they looking at private customer data? negromancer posted:Because

fishmech posted:older/cheaper rokus (the cheaper rokus often being the old hardware packaged in a newer case) are too slow or missing codec support to handle all the services the newer/more expensive rokus do. so they only get access to a limited subset of the choices. the original roku box in my spare bedroom works great with netflix + plex after all of these years and i think that's pretty drat good for a device that came out in 2008

just want to point out that tiny brontosaurus is legitimately a good poster who is constantly harassed because she calls out racist posts. that it's escalated to people doxxing her is horrible and it is an irl secfuck that the moderation here doesn't give a poo poo at all because she calls them out on their poo poo too.

FactsAreUseless is saying "nobody on SA has access to your credit card info" negromancer is saying "that's not true because I work at the hosting provider for SA and therefore have access" am I getting this right?

Segmentation Fault posted:FactsAreUseless is saying "nobody on SA has access to your credit card info" technically "I worked at the hosting provider so I know that FAU is lying" why would lowtax retain CC info for accounting purposes? what does logging into the load balancer tell you about CC retention? that thread is very confusing

Segmentation Fault posted:FactsAreUseless is saying "nobody on SA has access to your credit card info" he's saying that he has access and so knows all the data is there, and therefore also knows that lowtax and anyone lowtax grants access to can also see all the data.

Lowtax posted:Oh shut the gently caress up, I have never seen anybody's full CC information, much less ever stored it for "accounting purposes" you lying idiot. quote:Actually you know what? Call this cumulative for the constantly bad posting every time I see you post all the time, all the insane D&D poo poo, but especially for telling people that their CC info isn't secure here. If you don't want to post here, don't. Stop pretending you're important or special with your ~~~secret knowledge~~~. If you re-reg, and I don't encourage it, I'd better see you post differently.

Also it seems like FAU could be technically correct if he means literal CC #s but also have it be possible for name+zip to be accessible by someone other than lowtax

years and years and years ago there was a claim that fistgrrl was keeping track of registrations using credit card numbers to see if anyone who's not supposed to come back does that is where the rumours stem from

Even lowtax's comment that he's never seen "full" CC info doesn't contradict TB's concern (afaik) that someone leaked her name+zip.

spankmeister posted:I distinctly remember something about SA keeping around CC information as a unique identifier to make sure people wouldn't be able to get around permabans. fistgrrl and one other admin back in the day would manually add user accounts when credit card transactions went through, so would have some level of insight on the payment method (don't think it was really the credit card number though, probably just names and addresses if anything). that was a long rear end time ago and there's been several different payment systems in use since then.

imagine i crossposted everything i said in that thread here it's not outside the realm of possibility that a small hosting provider would ask their sysadmin to check their customers for known exploits on vbulletin or its variants the wording isn't clear, but we won't get a discussion out of it if fau bans the other party instead of letting the discussion continue

yeah that's my favorite part too, mostly because I know a few turbonerds who do the same poo poo actually some of them are the same people i mentioned looking at customer data while working for hosting providers, maybe hosting providers just attract horrible people?
