TechCrunch Disrupt Hackathon BCC Fail. We Apologize #TCLeakers

A couple of years ago RockYou couldn't seem to send an email to partners without screwing up and cc'ing everyone. We pointed each screwup out, with catchy headlines. I knew that someday, somehow, we'd probably do the same thing. And I knew we'd have to take extra criticism for it because we've called out others. Today's payback day. We sent a mass email and we failed to use BCC. It's Amateur Hour at TechCrunch, and we deserve derision. Consider us rolling over on our backs and showing you our submissive belly. We apologize, sincerely.We sent out a simple email to all applicants of the upcoming Disrupt Hackathon in New York. There are a lot of them - 452, I believe, which is more than any of our previous hackathons, and we still have a month to go. It's going to be a very fun event.
