Indicted

The Feds have indicted a college student for hacking Sarah Palin's email account.  The story says he did it using Yahoo's password recovery tool.  Enough of her 'personal information' was publicly available for him to successfully pose as her.

Uh oh.  I have Yahoo email.

But probably no one wants to read it that bad.

I suppose the college student didn't think through the fact that this particular hack would get the attention of high government agencies.  When they decide to devote their resources to tracing internet exploits, they're pretty good at it.

I would get nervous
if I thought my hack 
would be tracked back 
by the Secret Service
