"Anonymous" Hacks Palin's Private Email

netbuzz writes "'Anonymous,' best known for its jousts with Scientology, has apparently hacked Sarah Palin's private Yahoo email account. Contents, including sample emails, an index, and family photos, have been posted by Wikileaks, which calls them evidence that the GOP vice presidential candidate has improperly used private email to shield government business from public scrutiny." Note that there is no easy way to tell if the material on Wikileaks is genuine or a hoax. Update by J : Genuine.

    Try telling Tom Cruise that Scientology is a crock. I'd imagine he'd scream incoherently at the top of his lungs, jump up and down then rip your face off.

    HEY TOM CRUISE!!!!

    If you're reading this, then I tell you that your hokey sci-fi, pseudo-religion CULT is a crock of crap.

    And I also think you're a faggot weenie too.

    So there.

      I'm sure Tom Cruise will see this the next time he logs onto his /. account. And he surely thanks you for your opinion.

    Sadly, that's incorrect. 4 lefts makes you go straight. Try three next time :)

    Can someone give me the rationale for those password recovery mechanism that are usually far weaker than the passwords themselves?

    They're not. Of course I've changed it since, but yesterday my answer to "Where did you meet your spouse" was "At the intersection of Beta Sirius and EO5F4KNwSfIWsTv94VyXSCRXbRrOeUzcAOozDUpeYRHFmmKJbRImqt5XPr5lDZ1"

    "Seriously, do you want the US to behave like the Roman Empire?"

    And just what have the Romans done for us?

    The aqueduct.

    Reg: Oh yeah, yeah they gave us that. Yeah. That's true.

    Masked Activist: And the sanitation!

    Stan: Oh yes... sanitation, Reg, you remember what the city used to be like.

    Reg: All right, I'll grant you that the aqueduct and the sanitation are two things that the Romans have done...

    Matthias: And the roads...

    Reg: (sharply) Well yes obviously the roads... the roads go without saying. But apart from the aqueduct, the sanitation and the roads...

    Another Masked Activist: Irrigation...

    Other Masked Voices: Medicine... Education... Health...

    Reg: Yes... all right, fair enough...

    Activist Near Front: And the wine...

    Omnes: Oh yes! True!

    Francis: Yeah. That's something we'd really miss if the Romans left, Reg.

    Masked Activist at Back: Public baths!

    Stan: And it's safe to walk in the streets at night now.

    Francis: Yes, they certainly know how to keep order... (general nodding)... let's face it, they're the only ones who could in a place like this.

    (more general murmurs of agreement)

    Reg: All right... all right... but apart from better sanitation and medicine and education and irrigation and public health and roads and a freshwater system and baths and public order... what have the Romans done for us?

    Xerxes: Brought peace!

    Reg: (very angry, he's not having a good meeting at all) What!? Oh... (scornfully) Peace, yes... shut up!

    Bloody Romans....
