Bloomberg quoted an unnamed security expert as saying the hackers were connected to a foreign government — however, such attacks are very difficult to trace."
IOW, the Chinese did it, and everyone is too fucking scared to point the finger.
Oh dear, is there a rule of some sort that if you're correcting someone else's grammar/spelling/(mis-)use of words, you'll get something wrong on your own post?

A: No. You see, there are no Niggers on the Internet.
No women either.

However Apple's users are certainly prone to social engineering.
Of course I'm prone to social engineering. Why else would I have an iMac. And a MacBook. Two iPods. One iPhone (and two iPods and an iPhone for my kid.)
Agreed. This could just as easily be a false leak. It would be ridiculous to take these statements at face-value, given that misinformation is one of the CIA's strongest suits.
Nokia will rue the day Apple comes out with a $100 iPhone, they'll be relegated to making cheap solar powered 'dumb phones' to sell to developing countries.
Not sure about the rest of the world, but in the US, I only see two things keeping non-Droid/non-iOS phones from being 100% of the market. First is that for some people, even a $49 phone is too much. Second is the carriers. Be it from forced pricey contracts or whatever religious mania that has people attracted to non-Verizon/non-AT&T carriers.

"The soul of music has nearly vanished"? Surely, you must be joking. Either that, or you haven't been listening to enough Tween Wave.
That stuff just sounds like shit to me.
What are you on about? This could help people who like to masturbate. I'm told that a significant part of the population engages in that activity.
Just to double check that they aren't lying about their hack.
That may be one of the more depressing things I've read on the internet.
IOW, the Chinese did it, and everyone is too fucking scared to point the finger.
Which makes no sense at all. Shouldn't they be happy that Apple is free to do whatever the fuck they want?
If there is one thing slashdot doesn't have a bit of, it is class.
Boy, Alex P. Keaton really likes you. I bet TomHudson is jealous.
Don't be too hard on yourself. The 'editor' could have fixed it or dumped it from the queue if it was that bad.
Why won't Florian Mueller deny that he raped and murdered a young girl in 1980?
I'm just asking.
An unlimited* data plan isn't the same as unlimited data. Read the fine print.
I notice you ducked the 'data' vs 'internet' issue in favor of mentioning some irrelevant BS about 'unlimited'.
Being a tool and being prone to social engineering are not mutually exclusive. In fact, I would say they tend to go hand in hand.
(even though the entry itself state's that...

Followed by pedants arguing about that word.
Q: Were Niggers hacked?
A: No. You see, there are no Niggers on the Internet.
No women either.

I thought their chief weapon was surprise.
You misspeled slut.
Can we PLEASE go in on the side of the Germans next time?
Or does this have to do with not paying rights to the guy who invented them?
When in middle school, I loved Car Wars. Shame about the phone bill to Austin.
So when did SJGames relinquish control of io.com?
D'oh! Western Electric, not Westinghouse. Got confused with where my great-aunt worked for some reason.
I just want a phone as durable as the Westinghouse built AT&T phones we had when I was a kid.
Nokia will rue the day Apple comes out with a $100 iPhone, they'll be relegated to making cheap solar powered 'dumb phones' to sell to developing countries.
So Apple will have to double the price of the 3gs? And there are several Droids for ~$100, aren't there?

Um... [ctrl+J] opens up the download window on Firefox.
Yeah, and the Germans didn't bomb Pearl Harbor either. Doesn't really change the point of the rant.
We have the CAA, not the AAA, And the AA is British.
I think they are non-denomenational.
