A few days after the emails first went out, Ubisoft has responded to its accidental leak of around 500 fansâ email addresses withâŠanother email.

While a âsorryâ might have been appreciated, all users received was a short message that read:

Saying your email address had been âgathered without following proper privacy guidelines and proceduresâ sure sounds nicer than âwe accidentally sent your email address to thousands of complete strangersâ.
