Just going to do an iffy translation of a post on animator Tadashi Hiramatsu's blog relating to this incident:

Since taking responsibility for the issue is exactly what makes compensation for the victims possible, saying we're not to blame because the offender's data is different from the company's and it was a third party (someone who left the company?) would be the same as thinking "We have absolutely no intentions of providing compensation".
Can you do business with such a company?
That concludes my personal thoughts.

This really is shaking up quite a few things... now to hurry up and catch up on all the damn logs!
People have definitely received letters of apology. But this seems to contradict with Bones' official outward stance that they are not responsible (why would a company that denies having anything to do with the information send an apology?)
Before the announcement some people were guessing Bones would be rather stuck cos they usually like to give no comment answers, but now... hm.
Definitely suspicious how the document was uploaded in June but only became a big matter over the
weekend and the weekend where Minami and Hidaka were at Anime Expo, too...
EDIT: I wonder if it's possible for this thread's title to be changed, it's more than just the possibility of sequels now...
