If this is not your new policy, you really should update it.  If it is still your policy, then you shouldn't be claiming otherwise here.

In their defense, a TOS update probably can't happen overnight during Xmas holidays for practical reasons.

Certainly, however it was December 19 when it was stated:

. . . We have taken the following steps to stop this from ever occurring again: . . .
  • We are currently reviewing our privacy policy. What we did today was excessive. I do not want customers fearing the use of their private data.
. . .

Then on December 21 it was stated:
. . .We won't be sharing any more customer data. (Unless demanded by law enforcement).

After this whole debacle I don't think we'll be attempting to publicly shame anyone else . . .

And yet today January 2 (15 days after the initial incident) the TOS still states:
Quote
. . . all your information, public and private, will be shared with all third parties we do business with . . . and this information may be shared publicly at our discretion.
