Not once in that entire response does he apologise for his staff posting personal details (the closest he gets is saying that it maybe "wasn't wise"), and nor does he apologise for the shipping delay. While it's not his fault his old supplier dicked him around, a simple "sorry", followed by some mention of the steps he had taken to ensure this wouldn't happen again (independently of switching supplier; what happens if the new one dicks him too?) would go a long way to restoring faith.
On another note, I'm not entirely sure this article belongs on HN. It's not the kind of thing I come to HN to read about, that's for sure.

When I saw the post on reddit, I thought it would be good to get HN's take on it, since at its core it's a business snafu. I'll try to be more careful in the future.
