T-Mobile's servers/subscribers compromised for more than a year Posted by Pile (6554 views) [E-Mail link] UPDATE: More than a year later, it appears T-Mobile still has serious security problems. A sophisticated computer hacker had access to servers at wireless giant T-Mobile for at least a year, which he used to monitor U.S. Secret Service e-mail, obtain customers' passwords and Social Security numbers, and download candid photos taken by Sidekick users. The hacker had access to T-Mobile's 16+ million customers' information and was involved in efforts to sell the information online. T-Mobile has been backpedaling on details over the security breach.   in the news...yup Posted by Anonymous on 2005-01-20 12:51:11 ....wtf you talkin about...this story has been/is/was ...covered by the mainstream media for the last week or so...just run a google check or get transcripts of the nightly news programs. sheeesh Posted by Pile on 2005-01-20 20:03:17 I believe though, that this story, like many these days was brought to the mainstream after it spread on the Internet, which is long after the story was intitially known and ignored by traditional news media.   Comments   Name: (change name for anonymous posting) Title: Comments:     1 Article displayed.
