A single...A link can break in the strongest chain.<br /><br />A single password loss by a single law enforcement officer can be used by dedicated attackers to throw egg on the face of the FBI.<br /><br />This was partly a random event: random in the sense that predicting the exact location/cause of the breach was nearly impossible before the breach occurred.<br /><br />It was partly non-random: the collaborating law enforcement agencies were working against the Anonymous group. Anonymous targeted them in response, looking for ways to use their abilities against the law enforcement agencies. I feel safe in saying that many attacks were attempted.<br /><br />One, at minimum, of those attacks was successful.karrdehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00205160745963596856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173950.post-32026906541629759082012-02-04T16:56:13.722-05:002012-02-04T16:56:13.722-05:00I'm still waiting for that Facebook server sei...I'm still waiting for that Facebook server seize.<br /><br />The "Justice Department" allows Somalian pirates to be let back out. Raping illegal border crossers from Mexico to be left go. Black Panther voter intimidation thugs to be left go. But they crack down on internet websites, oh yeah. Cause Democrat companies were losing "money". Capitalist dogs love money, right. They fight against social injustice, right. They redistribute wealth from the rich to the poor, right.

Ah, those were the days.<br /><br />I'd say that I'm surprised that people are not already tying security to the machine as well as the password, but large organizations move slowly.<br /><br />LittleRed1Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
