hhhmmmm..... I better change my security questions as it is too easy to find answers online for general security questions....
 
I read about that this morning.

The big question is... why was she using Yahoo for her government emails?
 
lol, this hacker is doing good...

It's Palin's fault for lacks of security feature in email and she is supposed use government owned email service, that's more securer than Yahoo.

From what I heard, she was using Yahoo for communicating with people who work for the government but they were not conducting official business. More like rants and chats.

The actual emails have been posted online but I haven't read them. If you have more details please feel free to post them. I've been out of touch today.

Do you think that justifies the hacking?
 
I read about that earlier today.

Like Vampy said, I, too, wondered the same thing.

According to the article provided in the link --

The break-in of Palin's private account is especially significant because Palin sometimes uses non-government e-mail to conduct state business. Previously disclosed e-mails indicate her administration embraced Yahoo accounts as an alternative to government e-mail, which could possibly be released to the public under Alaska's Open Records Act.

I have to also wonder why would she use a non-government e-maill to conduct state business? If she were to conduct any state business, it should have been on a private server and/or on a state based email system instead of using Yahoo. Things just doesn't add up to this.

She isn't too terribly concerned about security, it would appear.:roll:

Yes, I do wondered the same thing about it.
 
I don't understand why she is not using the state email account for state businesses.
 
questionable accountability

Hacking is never justified. But how can you control the morality of everyone in the world? Impossible. I question the judgement of anyone in the public eye to not use something secure. She is not a babe in the woods.

Her e-mails were already looked at and into and nothing out of it would impact her campaign negatively.

The hacker already broke the federal laws for hacking into her e-mail address. The Secret Service and FBI are actively investigating this matter.
 
I saw it on Atlanta news about Palin's email hack. The hacker was in Athens,Georgia. Investginator wanted to question to the hacker when they will arrest him. Actually, He will have cooperation to the police.
 
Governor Palin probably used her Yahoo! account to fetch messages from her government E-mail account so she won't have to wait until she is at work. I do this with my Gmail accounts so that I won't have to wait the next morning and respond right away using the company domain on Gmail. I keep copies on the company one.
