Palin Email Hacker Found
mortonda writes to tell us that the person responsible for breaching Sarah Palin's private email account has been found. We discussed the breach last Wednesday, shortly before the hacker, a University of Tennessee-Knoxville student, posted a message detailing his methods. Wired has a story examining the potential legal consequences for the hacker.
Unless someone just compromised that forum account and framed him.
Are you a jew?
Which nigger modded this troll?
OK, so the student did a stupid and illegal thing. Got it. Now, let's ask ourselves this: Why is Sarah Palin using a private account when she is Governor? She has no respect for the sunshine laws that are supposed to make government transparent. She's not the first; the White House staff also used their acces to the RNC email system and other private providers to go around the legalites of compliance with archiving regulations. If you're going to hunt the student down and make him pay for the crime, then I just hope some smart defense attorney uses discovery to fully explore what she was sending and what she was reading in her "private" correspondence.
wtf are you doing on a 'left leaning' website anyway ?
from what i came to understood by reading you americans' posts on slashdot, american conservatives tend to label anything that is pro-freedom or free speech as 'left'.
if freedom hurts so much, get the fuck out of slashdot.

Palin is protected by her understatement. She uses it for bullying. You cannot attack her because that would make her a victim and she makes you appear rude.
I mean look at her statements. I mean for instance when she talks about her son beeing deployed in Iraq. Isn't it frightening to see an aspiring political leader buy into peasants propaganda? She wants to get into a leadership position and talks herd. That is frigthening.
Am I arogant and elitist to talk like this. Sure, I am. You see how it works and results in adverse selection.
She talks trash. Some speak out but she can surf on her underdog routine. Attack her and it strengthens her underdog routine.
Cracker is an idiot.
Well, he is a DEMOCRAT.
But I guess that would be redundant.
But it's not rude to criticize her for supporting the bridge to nowhere, or some policy position you disagree with. If she tries to hide behind the "underdog" persona to avoid these charges she will be unsuccessful.
Yeah, but she's really hot. I would totally bone that chic. Oh, I'm sorry, were you saying something??
Please...NYTs? WaPost?
Partisan Political hack rags.
She's far more qualified to be VP than you are to post your insipid drivel on Slashdot.
Obama thinks if he goes on a whirlwind world tour that makes him qualified? Bullshit.
WTF does Obama know about the world and foreign policy? Was he on the FP committee? No. did he ever meet with any world lead before his dog and pony show? No.
Bottom line is all he knows is corrupt Chicago politics, former terrorists, and America hating preachers.
Biden you say? He's a moron. He shouldn't be let within earshot of any foreign leader lest he say something stupid.
The bottom line is that at least Palin has done something in her political career other than preen and posture. Obama is a fucking disaster waiting to happen. If he gets in we are all well and truley fucked.
Yeah! We're no better either... but, at least, we don't have Bush and Cheney ;-)
Precious. Vitriol toward Palin is "insightful" while vitriol toward Obama is "troll". Slashdot at its heart.
"Nuances?" Are you serious? It's a subpoena. You have to answer it. To ignore it is illegal. Any lawyer that advises you to break the law is himself breaking the law. "But it's politically motivated!" is not an excuse. Once you're under oath before the legislature, there may be various grounds for you to refuse to testify, but you can't just not show up.
There may be nuance involved elsewhere in "Troopergate," but there's none here.
