You bring up very good points, thanks.

I contacted Linode support and they've said in clear terms that they have no evidence that payment information of customers was accessed. I initially signed up for Linode because my friends spoke highly of the tech people working at Linode. Right now amidst all the commotions it's ryan's words (some anonymous dude who joined #linode/irc.oftc.net) vs. an established company's. I'm just going to now stop worrying and get back to my work.

On an interesting note, the big target who actually incurred identifiable damage was seclists.org: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2013/q2/3

Well that's a first. They were very evasive about it earlier.

Apparently they weren't entirely honest with you, then: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5556846
