Details emerge in Palin e-mail hacking

Summary:
Last Thursday vice presidential canidate for McCain, Sarah Palin's email was hacked into. The hacker has been identified and is unwilling to comment. All the hacker said was "I am the lurker who did it, and i would like to tell the story." The hacker said that it started as a prank but due to the panic by the FBI it became much more than that. Gabriel Ramuglia operates an internet anonymity service which the hacker had used. Since the hacker used the service illegally and broke rules Ramuglia is willing to cooperate.

Opinion:
I think that the vice presidential canidate Sarah Palin should have a more complex e-mail password that cannot be obtained through security questions. It is very important that the wrong people don't get their hands on things like email passwords and such. Luckly the hacker was just a pranker that didn't do any serious damage that i think would influence Palin and McCain's campaign. Critics have just been looking for improper political activity to use against Palin, but i think that the people to blame here is either Yahoo or Ramuglia. If someone was trying to hack Sarah Palin's email, Ramuglia should have stepped in and saw that this was wrong. The service that provided the hacker should be shut down immediatly to eliminate the chance for it to happen again.
