sorry our site wasn't protected to your standards... -the guy from the company. ...For some reason I feel like I should respond to this, but it just doesn't seem like it would be worth it.

It wouldn't be worth it for two reasons. First, that's probably not really the guy from the company. Probably neither he nor any of his friends read the sites where this got posted. Second, he would be right. The amount of security you use depends what you're protecting. For ourdoings.com I SSL-protect passwords and salt+hash them on the server side. For the set of ads described in the article, nominal "security" of a client-side JavaScript password is probably about right. :-)

  Seems like the guy was either posting there or following the thread. The username and password changed several times and finally the page itself is down.

    Ah, now I get it. Referrer logs.

    Yeah I'm upset about the page. I wanted to see who fell for their special list. I'll be their government "agents" are happy about it. No site means they don't have to find companies to hire. No site = No work. :)
