Hacker Penetrates T-Mobile Systems
An anonymous reader writes "SecurityFocus.com reports 'a sophisticated computer hacker had access to servers at wireless giant T-Mobile for at least a year, which he used to monitor U.S. Secret Service e-mail, obtain customers' passwords and Social Security numbers, and download candid photos taken by Sidekick users, including Hollywood celebrities.' Demi Moore and Paris Hilton are involved."
At first, I got "Nothing to see here" ... but Paris Hilton? Sounds like that guy had plenty to see ;-)
Didn't know Demi Moore and Paris Hilton were that good with computers.
does it really exist?
i wish i was but oh well
you mean cracker?
How do you know he's white?
Can somebody please post the Paris Hilton photos?
Where is the -1 Disgusting mod when you need it?
I dunno who it is
but it prolly is fhqwhgads.
Ohh, well... that makes it terribly important then!
I hope it came with an 18-dollar bill.
In other news, The President had to be reminded (again) that the White House Lobby Pay Phone should not be used to call Ariel Sharon.
Cue in virus spreading under the pretense of Paris' new nude haxx0red pictures in five, four, three, two...
Most impressive that it took them a year to find him, and unsirprisingly they catched him when he tried to make a mint out of his exploiting. Remember kiddies, bragging is not good for you.

Well, just because he got into T-Mobile's system doesn't mean he has a lot of friends. Sure, most young males engaged in such activities are giants of men, with beautiful girls on each arm, and the social ease of a High Commissioner after a second martini, but they're not all so smooth. Heck, he was probably overwhelmed by the fact that the Secret Service took an interest in him, and, seeing photographic evidence that the rumors of those wild "protect the currency" parties were true, figured this was a better shot at a real job than a scattershot "to whom it may concern" resume mentioning everything but the name of the nun who kicked him out for one too many links to the xmas islands on the high school web page.

A loop, by its nature, continues. If that didn't make sense, start reading this sentence again.

Why yes, that's exactly my reasoning. Such a sagacious insight from such a clever man.
It's inexcuable for the frelling SS to have been sending sensitive documents around in unencrypted emails.
:p
The SS? Don't these guys use Enigma?
