Because if you don’t [email all members to let them know what has happened, and what steps are being taken to address and correct the situation], you are sending a very bad message to your members. You are telling us that you only send us emails when it’s important, like when you want us to upgrade to a premium account, or update our profile, or connect our email address book to our account. But when it comes to our security, well that’s not important enough to warrant a ‘personal’ email.
