Concerned about Blizzard tracking our activities....

So I just happen to read the blue post about Gawker security compromise. http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/to...33940?page=1#1

In the post the GM states that they were sending out password change emails to those players who might be affected. How would blizzard know if you have a account with Gawker?

look at this link from kotaku:

they wouldn't and don't. That email is a phishing scam.

look at this link from blizz:
http://blue.mmo-champion.com/topic/1...t-gawker-media

How is what I said fake? I linked the same exact thing you did....

Quoted from what the GM said:

namely for players who might be using the same login information for their Gawker Media accounts and their Battle.net accounts -- we recently issued password-reset emails for several accounts.

How would they happen to know what accounts to send the email too if they don't track that info?

Probably they looked at the file too.
