Found it very odd too. "They know my account and my identity so I'll ban my account, but I'm still gonna leak" Why wouldn't they fire her over this? She confessed that she will still be leaking. She's an odd character. Anyway I hope we will still get leaks one way or the other.

 

somebody on gaf posted about it:

"NPD has to draw strangely arbitrary lines to keep their business model going, so it's not that far a stretch. What's the point in paying them for numbers if you can't use them in limited ways? Being able to share them and inferences drawn from them with a limited audience is part of what makes subscribing to the information worthwhile in the first place. So you can't ban that outright without losing all of your customers. They're stuck trying to limit disclosure to the public instead, which is where the forum becomes a clear violation they can clamp down on.

Presuming they don't know what other channels Aquamarine has in mind makes it impossible to claim any specific infringement. It's not like they can claim they need to see all private correspondence without pissing off their subscribers. So while it seems like Aqua is courting more trouble it's also obvious he likes to irritate the NPD at every opportunity so this is consistent, too."

 

 

it seems like she likes to deliberately piss off the npd group, but they can't do anything about it if it's private.

 

"continue leaking on the secret base" could mean like giving numbers to internal chase employees who happen to be on gaf. it could mean anything and npd can't demand to know all private uses of their data. seems like they can only do things when it's public, like when it's posted on gaf or here.

It still doesn't make sense because she doesn't pay for the NPD data, her company does, the company shares the info with their employees (her), she wants to share that info with 3rd parties (favored gaf members) who aren't employees of the group that pay for the subscription (JP Morgan).
