This is just plain irresponsible. Spain does not want tourists.
If they can quickly get another 6 million members, then they can claim "only" 50% of members got hacked - much better than the current 100%.

Just use public transportation and ditch these price gougers all together. $5 gets you anywhere in the city, not just to southern cross.
