Bcc blunder leaks details of Silk Road Bitcoin bidders

The US Marshals Service has leaked the email address of everyone interested in the auction of 29,656.51306529 bitcoins confiscated from the Silk Road black market site. The auction is due to take place on 27 June, with bidders asked to stump up $200,000 to take part. The USMS apologised for the privacy breach, and emphasised that inclusion on the list did not necessarily indicate that a particular party was bidding for the bitcoins. Past culprits have included the Taliban spokesperson who accidentally leaked his entire mailing list of 400 contacts.”]
