    Nor can YOU say they were not.  

    Good thing I didn't, huh? In fact, I was merely addending the post that did mention that.
    You are almost always the first with your virulent brand of mindlessly sycophantic Apple rants about other members here, but you conveniently sweep under the rug that your own logic is as flawed as the people you are attacking.

    lol, irony. And lies; can't forget the lies.
    ...specifically states that A) "An intruder attempted...

    There you go. Did you read your e-mail?
    Apple would not acknowledge the possibility of data theft if there had been no successful breach.

    Talk about flawgic! :lol:

    You're kidding right, 20 million is nothing compared to what Microsoft, Google, Amazon, even eBay spend a year. It cost over 100 million to get Bing operational.

    Come on, now. You're comparing a company's restricted developer website to a search engine designed to scrape the entire Internet AND receive requests thereof and push out information for said requests 24/7. It's completely different.

    The headline of this article is missing the word "no" before the word "data".

    Sloppy.

    "Apple says its developer site was hacked, but that sensitive no data was encrypted"?

    Sloppy, indeed. :no:

    That was the worst kind of data to not encrypt, the sensitive no data stuff.

    But it's also the easiest to encrypt: just put it on WOM.

    How long is this going to take?

    I've been in need of downloading Xcode since Thursday. This is ridiculous. My Mac developer membership actually expired on Wednesday the day before this happened, and now I can't even re-up it.

    And are we really going to miss out on DP 4 and iOS beta 4 today because of this nonsense???

    Get it together Apple, there is a ship to sail here.

    They are in a bit of a fix. Apparantly the exploit was a simple script injection. So now they have to write new code and pen test it. If they don't someone else will prove their new security has another flaw. By being down so long they now have to make sure that it is secure when up.

    I'm guessing there is no way they would issue DP4 & iOS 7 beta4 with the Dev center still down...even though they could via OTA updates.

    There is nothing flawed about it - you apparently can't comprehend the English language.  For starters:


     


    1) An intruder is a person who has INTRUDED, e.g. they have entered into an area forbidden them.  For Apple to use that language implies that there was a breach, not an attempted breach, as you keep insisting (despite all evidence to the contrary).


     


    2) Apple is acknowledging the possibility that some data may have been stolen.  Again, they would not do this if they were certain no intrusion had taken place.

    Of course they would.

    Are we really arguing about this. Still?

    He was an intruder, so he was a successful intruder. He may not have been successful at getting data, but he was successful at intruding. And, he has outed himself with apparently genuine email addresses.

    I guess no company has ever had its users change passwords to be safe rather than sorry, even if none were confirmed to have been affected, huh¡

    Can't believe you're still on this kick.

    Oh yeah, I guess you're right, still can't be cheap though.

    Twice so far this afternoon I have received "How to reset your Apple ID password" emails, but i have not attempted to do so. I take that as a sign that developer email addresses have in fact been taken.

    Well I'm glad I was wrong. Didn't stop them from releasing DP 4, which I've got up and running now.

    Let's hope iOS 7 beta 4 is next.

    Can you look at the source code of the email and post the link that it tells you to go too, please.

    Absolutely not. Shame on you for trying that.
