"in a recently leaked phone call, a New York attorney and  
MediaDefender discuss the security of their email-server. Whilst  
there is some initial confusion as to where the leak may have  
originated, they eventually write it off as some technical problem"

There is some irony here, i'm sure of it.

"MediaDefender-Defenders proudly presents some more internal  
MediaDefender stuff… more will follow when time is ready.  
MediaDefender thinks they’ve shut out their internals from us. Thats  
what they think."

"In addition the the phone call, a huge MySQL database dump from a  
MediaDefender server was leaked on BitTorrent as well. The database  
shows tracking and decoy file information for the Gnutella network  
which is used by P2P clients such as LimeWire."
