Getting spammed since AT&T gave up my email address

I was one of the iPad users whose email address, etc was revealed in that exploit from a few weeks, ago. I know because AT&T sent me a long, rambling letter to that effect.

Not long after that, I started getting more unfiltered spam than prior to that point. I read privacy policies and whatnot when I sign up with sites and services and don't think this is a coincidence.

Have any of you experienced this, too? (AT&T email exploit + subsequent spam increase)
