Verizon exposes the wrong 1,200 e-mail addresses

David Williams' (tech coordinator for Texas school district) formula doesn't make common-sense. If 17 e-mails expose 1,200 e-mail addresses, the number of opportunities to leak e-mail addresses was still 17 times, not 20,000. Each e-mail is one chance for all e-mails to expose them, not 1,200 chances to expose.

Don't inflate the issue...17 possible opportunities to leak up to 1,200 e-mail addresses. The potential leakage would impact, at most, 1,200 e-mail addresses...on 17 separate occasions.
