    TSR TSR3.5 Launches IndieGogo Campaign to "Stop" WotC

    I literally snorted in the middle of a client call just now and giggled.

    100% this.

    NuTSR Financial Data Breach

    I also want to mention the following - If any customers that are impacted are in places like the EU or in California where there's GDPR and CCPA, respectively, that's some important stuff. These two regulatory frameworks are going to add another level of complexity to the mountain of trouble...

    NuTSR Financial Data Breach

    If the same payment processor is spread across those other businesses, it's wholly within the realm of possibility that they'll drop him like a hot rock. Additionally, a lot of other processors may not onboard him because of the lack of PCI compliance. That can lead to going with far riskier...

    NuTSR Financial Data Breach

    That's a bit more complicated. He potentially faces fines for being in violation of PCI-DSS and that can pile up. A lot. Then he's got trouble from Credit Card and CC processing companies. If he gets charged per-record, depending on the size of the Excel file, it could be 'death by a...

    NuTSR Financial Data Breach

    Data Protection consultant here - this is, factually, a breach. Merchants can store credit card information. However, that data must be encrypted (PCI DSS Rule 3.1). This paste-eating mouth-breather, opted not only to store payment information, but he sent it out 1) Unencrypted and 2)...

    That's entirely fair. Echo chambers. Yay. I did watch the video from the beginning of this thread. This is my response to it. [Your INT has dropped by 3d6 points]

    TSR TSR3.5 Launches IndieGogo Campaign to "Stop" WotC

    Ugh. Doesn't anybody remember what our parents told us ages ago? Like, ignore these idiots and they'll eventually take their ball and go home. Instead, we give them a megaphone and exposure to espouse their dumb to the world :(

    I dunno. I think Justin Lanaga, Justin W Lavana, Justin Levana, and Justin W. probably pledged. It's legit. I swear.

    Is Larry Elmore still attached to this goat rodeo?

    This has strong 'Leave Brittany Alone' energy.

    TSR TSR3.5 Launches IndieGogo Campaign to "Stop" WotC

    Absolutely. At the time - had no idea. Even the response from Counsel states that they're intentionally attempting to cause confusion in the market - which I believe may be its own issue?

    TSR TSR3.5 Launches IndieGogo Campaign to "Stop" WotC

    Like, I'm no attorney, but that's really the first thing that leapt out at me (but I do work with business that are heavily regulated). Reading through the comments this afternoon (from 1 all the way to this one) - each and every post. I'll admit that I continue to see TSR through rose-colored...

    TSR TSR3.5 Launches IndieGogo Campaign to "Stop" WotC

    I literally made an account so that I could reply to this. Something that I haven't seen anyone say just yet is that, this Disclaimer that "TSR" is railing against for libel (and I am using that term understanding that it is factually false and misleading) was probably run through WoTC Legal...
