Rich Pretexter, Poor Pretexter

theodp writes "David Kernell used pretexting to gain access to Sarah Palin's e-mail. And now Kernell faces the possibility of a 20-year prison sentence. HP used pretexting to gain access to its Board's phone records. And now HP faces the possibility of supplying phones to the very companies that were victimized in the HP pretexting scandal. So perhaps Kernell should try coughing up $14.5 million to see if that'll make his pretexting problems disappear. Seems to have worked for HP!"

    Yeah something about HP faking an orgasm during phone sex with Sarah Palin, in order to distract her so David Kernell could sneak in through the back door so he could break in to her PC to steal her SPAM folder from her Hotmail account.
