I'm definitely not a big fan of Techcrunch but I kind of agree with them on this issue. They have these documents, there is information in them that would be interesting to the general public, they should publish them. It seems like they are showing some modicum of restraint by not posting the embarrassing personal information. Beyond that what would you really expect?
I guess that hacker is really mean spirited..knows how to torment not only twitter but also everybody else in tech community by getting the monkey (techcrunch) drunk ..with this monkey getting high now there is going to be shit (these kinds of stupid stories and discussion) everywhere tech people read news
These are times when I wish i could "bury" articles on hacker news
Is there any reference if the hacker stole the password to an account in Google Apps for Your Domain?
I use it and there are pretty much no password recovery options:
Please contact your domain administrator to help you access your username or reset your password.

He 'guessed' the password for Google Apps.. The wheedling out of passwords was done for Yahoo! email accounts, which offers an abundance of ways to get at forgotten/lost/'wanna-get-me-one-of-those' passwords.
Is a whole new news item really necessary? He could have showed "his reaction to our reaction" in comments, or whatever.
All this talking around the issue is annoying. Show the damn documents. This is nothing but corporate voyeurism, so give us a flash. Either that or link to the .zip/torrent!

The whole point is to try and whip up some PR for techcrunch. They're obviously going to string it out as long as they can. They'll probably release 1 doc a week for the next year.
Attempt to cover their ass?
BTW, How does Techcrunch look like these days?
