stop jumping to conclusions...

We haven't been told whether or not the guy tried to inform the ISP of the problem before he published the issue. Also, it is rather vague that he violated the stated AUP since the password WAS available to all the ISPs customers (that was the whole problem!).

The way it looks is that someone at the ISP is simply trying to CYA and passing the blame off on the (former) customer instead of taking any responsibility for their own boneheadedness.
