I believe this is the occupational hazard of relying on Social Media as a "Marketing Strategy"—the internet has become the digital version of the Wild Wild West.    It can't be controlled or regulated.  I suppose most companies see it as a bitter-sweet trade-off—(increase customer growth exponentially, simultaneously risking stability by unforeseen, nefarious network breaches.  I believe as long as the social web is your marketing platform of choice, you will always be vulnerable to attacks, e.g. (Song Playstation, LastPass attacks).  It's very unfortunate, but it seems to be unavoidable.  Hey Bruce,
