Pet supply retailer PetCo disclosed this week that its security and privacy practices are the target of an investigation by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), which is following up on an e-commerce security gaffe that left as many as 500,000 credit card numbers accessible from the Web earlier this year.

Second, I believe that PetCo should be restricted to doing business online if they cannot make a honest effort to secure their customer's private data. From what it sounds like in the article, this way a relatively trivial exploit and was probably the computer tech's (that set up the box) fault.
Third, I think that PetCo should at least acknowledge the fact that Jacks did what he did in good faith instead of downplaying the incident, like nothing happened.
Anyhow that just my two cents on the issue and Jacks, don't be discouraged, they only hate you because your better than them.
