1 million Apple device IDs with personal information have been stolen

Apple:



FBI:

An FBI computer was claimed by the hackers to be the source of the information, but the FBI has denied any involvement in the situation.

I highly doubt this sort of news is even true tbh.

I couldn't care if my details go missing, sometimes I hope they do and I lose stuff just so I can claim back more.

Insurance fraud? Naaah

I saw this, I wonder if they have my information on record. It wouldn't surprise me if they did because:

A) If the FBI was (for some arbitrary reason) interested in collecting this (seemingly useless) data, the Canadian government lets the American government walk all over us when it comes to tracking us, and when it comes to enforcing American laws which I personally do not give a damn about.

B) It's possible AntiSec just collected the data themselves and they didn't just stop at collecting Americans' information.

Leaked Apple device IDs likely stolen from digital publishing company, not FBI


App development company Blue Toad has come forward as the likely source of Apple unique device IDs (UDIDs) leaked by hackers last week. In an interview with NBC News, Blue Toad's CEO Paul DeHart says that the company checked the million UDIDs that AntiSec posted against its own database, comparing IDs and other metadata like device names. The correlation was strong enough for a "100 percent confidence level," he says. "It's our data." DeHart declined to specify how the data was taken, citing an ongoing investigation, but he did say it had likely happened in the past two weeks. AntiSec's version of events, by contrast, has the UDIDs taken from an FBI agent's laptop back in March.

Atleast they're honest about it I guess.

You would think we would have learnt by now that AntiSec wouldn't know honesty if it was doing a fan dance using a lettuce leaf in front of them. They are better off ignored. The only thing you should ever do when Anonymous and AntiSec are mentioned is to fix the apparent problem and never quote anything they've said, it's usually tripe that's been materialised out of thin air.
