Honestly, I don't like the use either. It is a serious issue. They know that. The writer knows that. Nevertheless the writer, while perhaps in poor judgment, assessed the situation in need of a slight touch of relief. They're trying to calm their customers. It looks like this is where they shall begin.
This commentary though, it is unnecessary. They are making an attempt of remain open and communicate with their customers. Responses like these aren't going to aid further such attempts of similar observers. Others are going continue as many still do: skating by with such breaches unreported. Your data will be out there and you won't have a clue. Would that be better?
This very view has been much of what is wrong with HN these days. Comments with this air of pseudo-intellectual, overly-critical analysis over the inherent nature of intentions (and word use).
