IDK about that but at the very least, they *have* to be aware of at
least one vulnerability in their system that allows so many accounts to
be hacked(1). A vulnerability they're either unable or unwilling to
close. If the latter is true (unwilling) then yes, they're culpable. If
the former (unable), they're just crap.
Is it any wonder BT are doing the 10' pole thing to them.
(1) If only because account hacking must get reported to them by
multiple people on a daily basis.
