Poor Internal security Measures are being blamed for this leak its not know if the infomation on the data base was compirismed or stolen . They are looking to it along with the California Highway Patrol and the Federal Bureau of Investigation are pursuing the incident and that the hacker has not been found.
Scary isnt it that all that information could be accessed so easily if in fact it was and they didnt find the breach to almost a Month and wasnt reported till even later still gotta make you wonder just how secure is Our Privacy ? are they doing all they can to keep private information Private ? Does'nt Look very good from where I sit how about You ? |
