Not quite [OT]: News about Revolution

[Bob Sneidar]

That's what they WANT you to think. ;-) But seriously, security breaches happen not by way of the measures in place, but by some breakdown in the same measures. Once the information is there, it is always going to be a temptation for interested parties to get their hands on it. All that said, the situation is no different that it already is everywhere else these days. 

Besides, if they fear a revolution, they are right where we want them. :-)
