Seriously? Personal info about the President was leaked? Not that this particular instance looks like a big deal. Doesn't the NSA secure the President's communication? That must be carrer-impacting-embarrassing for someone .
Personal information about someone who had their device name set to "Obama". Let's not get all crazy now.
I can't believe with nearly 100 comments I appear to be the only one to call the whole story of how these were acquired into doubt. I'm not saying that the FBI story isn't true, but so many comments here just assume it to be 100% factual - there's no evidence that it was taken from the FBI vs found on a USB Stick in the garbage. It's a big story, yes, but I think maybe a deep breath is in order before we all accuse t…
Though, it must be curious why AntiSec have had 12 million UDID's, but only now are releasing them. Also, no one else from AntiSec is corroborating it?
As an Australian I am intrigued by the following: just a comment: we are still waiting for published news about the $ 2 billions worth loans Assad has taken from Russia, mentioned on the syrian mails and also about the transfer of money to austrian banks etc.... and also cocks... So, don't be lazy journos and look for them. Any one have any additional info on that? EDIT: Derp...thanks for the correction. I read too f…
Austrian banks.
Namely, why has AntiSec not provided any to substantiate their claim that the data was sourced from the agent's laptop? Surely if they had access to it they could have provided some additional files as supporting evidence?

This is very disturbing. How did the FBI gain access to all this information? It should be locked up in Apple. From what I see, the NCFTA in "NCFTA_iOS_devices_intel.csv" looks like it stands for the National Cyber-Forensics & Training Alliance, which "functions as a conduit between private industry and law enforcement." ( http://www.ncfta.net/ ) Is Apple willingly sharing personal information with the FBI through th…
what kind of verification do you have that the file was pulled from an FBI computer? could anonymous have hacked this information from Apple or a carrier themselves? what information is present that they didn't do that?
Putting a file of user data on a laptop is a fireable offense at at any reputable organization. Sad that the FBI is less careful about user data protection than consumer Internet companies.
Kinda odd isn't it. My organization issued me a laptop to store all the confidental financial data I work with.

"Austrian, eh? Let's put some shrimp on the barbie!"
One of the best examples of a real Australian accent I've heard on American television is Dr. Chase [Jesse Spencer] from House, who is a real Australian and did not ham it up for an American audience. (Oddly though, the man who played his father in one episode had possibly the most embarrassingly bad fake Australian accent ever. Surprised Spencer didn't kick his arse during filming.)
Money quote for the people that don't want to wade through ten pages of rant: During the second week of March 2012, a Dell Vostro notebook, used by Supervisor Special Agent Christopher K. Stangl from FBI Regional Cyber Action Team and New York FBI Office Evidence Response Team was breached using the AtomicReferenceArray vulnerability on Java, during the shell session some files were downloaded from his Desktop folder…
