A Brave New World: Where the Bad Guys are Really Smart Too...
Master Card disclosed yesterday that it fell prey to computer hackers who pilfered data that makes over 40 million people vulnerable to financial fraud and, worse still, identity theft. And, this follows disclosures by other credit card companies in recent weeks that make it seem as though all credit card holders are just as vulnerable.
Clearly, even smart kids can be street (internet highway) thugs!
Unfortunately, no police force seems smart enough to halt this sinister revenge of the nerds....

Seems like fertile ground for terrorists. Their hatred for America and the financial pillars of our society look vulnerable still. Aren't raids of terrorists camps always turning up computers....hmmmmm

This just show that Iraq is not great America only Achilles heel. You are so vulnerable you have no idea!
Lol, seems not even the cyber-inspectors there can "halt the revenge of the nerds". On a positive note though, South African cyber-inspectors recently apprehended two people who conspired to kill a third.
Excellent, that was really well explained and helpful
