So are people really that dumb about government? They're a bunch of people no different to those working in private sector but with a more complex array of tasks to deal with (broader range of responsibilities than you would ever put in one company). So they made a mistake. They're doing what private companies do - probably fixing the problem while assuring the public there's nothing to worry about. Might someone have been able to access personal data? Maybe if they knew what they were doing. Might they have been able to pay my parking fine without my knowledge? Hey let's hope so! And yes reality is that 90% of private and public systems can be hacked with enough skills and effort. At least it sounds a tad harder the the lad who rightly guessed Sarah Palin's Yahoo email log in!!
