Moonpig is UK based. He could have looked up how to report a data breach in the UK. Not sure what the DMCA reference is about. I understand that people use DMCS on companies that are not US based therefore it has no power. Still not sure why you mentioned that though. |

They aren't related whatsoever, however the thought process of being put into the same position as the security research in this article is what made the connection for me. Assuming that the author wasn't from the UK (he probably is, but bare with me), as someone from the States I would have assumed that having an email exchange with the company was more than enough especially if there a reply on their end.
From my perspective, again knowing nothing about UK law (as much as people in the UK, China, or Fiji may know about US Law), I wouldn't know where to turn after that. Maybe a teaser post, without disclosing everything? If it weren't for the fact that the author stated that he had several two-way conversations with a representative of the company, I would have more sympathy for moonpig.
Speaking of which: How effective is the ICO?
