My post was not an endorsement of lifelock.com, Todd Davis or anything 
else. This post was made because I found it surprising that a CEO would 
post his own social security number "proving" his own service, something 
that other services don't do.

Attrition does not have any affiliation with lifelock.com or any other 
company/service that provides identity theft protection. Until earlier 
this evening, neither Lyger nor myself had heard of lifelock.com despite 
their "million dollar advertising campaign" (from what we were later 
told).

If anyone has any comments, criticisms or rebuttal of my post, we will 
selectively post them if they are fair, reasonable and cite their sources.

By reading this mail you absolve myself and attrition.org of any 
wrongdoing, pinkie swear you will eat a twinkie before midnight and will 
print and shred this message if it was not intended for you.
