Default Another AP post. AP admits wrong doing!

Haven't seen this posted yet. In this ESPN article, AP admits to a breach of security and wrongdoing.

ESPN article

If this has been posted some mod just delete the thread.

Edit/jman220: Please post all discussion on the AP scandal in the main thread already created: HERE

(Yes this has already been posted there). We're keeping everything consolidated because a lot of outside news agencies are reading the 2+2 thread.

Even though its good that AP has admitted to this, in the short run i see nothing but bad for online poker. however, hopefully this will lead to benefits for online poker in the long run....but who knows for sure

The statement:

[ QUOTE ]
Absolute Poker has identified an internal security breach that compromised our systems for a limited period of time. The cause of the breach has been determined and completely resolved. In addition, all necessary resources, both internal and external, have been engaged to ensure this does not happen again. Our investigation is not fully concluded, and we wish to thank the extended poker community for any and all assistance related to the matter.

Game integrity has always and continues to be of the utmost importance at Absolute Poker. The Management of Absolute Poker is appalled by these findings, and is committed to our players and to the integrity of our site and the online poker industry.

All players affected by the security breach will be identified during the audit process that has been initiated and all funds, including interest, will be returned. Absolute Poker would like to apologize for the recent events and is committed to diligently working with outside security firms, auditing firms, the extended poker community and the Kahnawake Gaming Commission to ensure the situation is entirely resolved.

A comprehensive statement will be forthcoming shortly providing more details of the situation.

Just more of APs smokescreen as they try to hide the fact that senior employees were involved. And doesnt the "gaming commission" have an ownership interest in AP?
