Ipad user data nets U.S. charges.



Two hackers stole the email addresses of more than 100,000 Apple IPad users, including those of politicians and famous media personalities, U.S. federal prosecutors said Tuesday in announcing criminal charges against two men. Spiller, a 26-year-old bookstore security guard from San Francisco, and Andrew Auernheimer, 25, of Fayetteville, Ark., face charges of fraud and conspiracy to access a computer without authorization. Fishman characterized the men and their cohort as engaging in "malicious one-upsmanship" as they sought to impress each other and others in the online community. I believe that Apple should always put their customers and their previse first on their list also AT&T should also have the previse of their customers. With this happening the image of Apple might change for some people and they might think of buying another product from them in the future. Even if this does happen Apple is such a company that it will not affect the company in any way.
