    I agree, but you might be getting the F.B.I. confused with other, more clandestine agencies.


     


    Not sure what you are getting at, but no, I'm not confusing them.

    Are people really thanking AntiSec for hacking this laptop and then distributing the personal information over the Internet so that anyone who has any ounce of ability can gather it and use it. Yeah, thanks guys, thanks a whole lot...

    wouldn't it be funny if Google's ad network was the source?

    They did not distribute personal information found among the csv file, they removed it...

    How is it possible to provide evidence of the negative?  It isn't because negative evidence does not exist.   Not saying anything about this particular data set one way or the other, but your statement is totally unsatisfiable.

    Precisely. That demand was a consistent theme throughout this thread and other forums. The impossibility of the demand was lost on all of them.

    What can people do with a device name and UDID number? Nothing. and by doing this, they're showing the world what the FBI's up to. Think of it this way, there are hackers that make iOS exploits, so Apple will close them right? Anonymous is doing the same, except with RL agencies. and in the process they're illuminating the lies.
