27. Because if you don’t [email all members to let them know what has
happened, and what steps are being taken to address and correct the
situation], you are sending a very bad message to your members. You are
telling us that you only send us emails when it’s important,
like when you want us to upgrade to a premium account, or
update our profile, or connect our email address book to
our account. But when it comes to our security, well that’s not important
enough to warrant a ‘personal’ email.
