Funny, I actually read this first on Slashdot 2-3 hours after the above blog post.

Really would have expected an Email security notice from Linode on this.

They are, but publishing a blog post is faster than sending hundreds of thousands of emails. They're doing both at the same time.

Last time they had to do an email blast, they used a third-party mail company and people complained that it looked like a phishing attempt. >_<
