Well the fact remains they were compromised. As to the level it's kind of a moot point.

Things like this are so disheartning.

If you can't trust security companies to not get hacked, what hope is there for anyone, big, small, company or individual?

Laziness and stupidity are rampant desieses, even among the very people that should be niether and that you place your trust in. They take your money and they provide.... nothing at all? Worse, a false sence of security. And we are about to embark on a major foray into trusting the internet 10 times as much as we ever have with this cloud computing stuff.

Still waiting for the day when people "Get it togeather". Will probably die waiting...

Well there is no unhackable system.
You would think a entity like this would be actively monitoring things with real live people instead of just software though. A living person can always cut the physical connection.
...and that's the only thing you can do in some instances.

Then I will miss the internet when that day comes.
I'll join it when I decide I'm comfortable taking my morning showers in my front yard.

I've never understood the logic behind cloud computing. Though honestly I've personally had a large enough interest in it to delve in far enough to gain a deep understanding. I see it making sense on some level in a mostly closed internal network. The way they are talking about implementing it though. I honestly don't see it ever gaining popularity.

Perhaps in some sort of futuristic public terminal kind of capacity just for general information reasons. I just never see it as being viable for even most business and definitely not for home use though.
