Occam’s Razor tells us the simplest explanation is most likely the best explanation: someone who had easy access to her account broke in.

That person would be someone at Yahoo Headquarters.

That den of moonbats had the method, motive, and opportunity to access her account. They also knew where to post the information to get widespread access.

People claiming to have done this are either leading authorities on a wild goose chase, or are trying to get credit – like confessing to serial killings.

Internet security “experts” are trying to dazzle us with highfalutin jargon of their trade. They just want to stroke their egos.

Tell the FBI to start their investigation in Sunnyvale, CA.

A couple of things need to happen 1) companies need to think about the types challenge questions they use and 2) people need to think long and hard about how much personal information they share on-line.

That said it’s more difficult for a public figure like Sarah Palin to keep certain personal details private. Using challenge questions like your date of birth, where you were born or went high school may work well for John and Jane Average but they’re a vulnerability when used by a public figure.

Ultimately security is a process not a destination and we need periodically reevaluate the step we take to protect ourselves.
