Sorry, I wasn't advocating berating the guy.

There is a need to send him one email, saying "Hey, noticed you made a mistake. It's pretty public (see hackernews), and you should fix it soon. Hope that helps!"

I hoped that someone would reply, saying, "Yup, I emailed him." and thus mitigate the potential flood of email. Since there was no announcement on the website to the tune of "Whoops, we made a security blunder, you'll have to do X to log in now", I assumed the guy was oblivious.
