Fuckin Hackers



Nerd goddess Morgan Webb reports on the recent outbreak of hacking via her podcast, Webb Alert. Check out the video above, then subscribe for daily stick joy here.

Her first story is from Wired and deals with a recent hack into an Epilepsy Foundation message board. These cyber-cretins used flash animation that triggered seizures in some users. That's real nice.

Elsewhere, Bulldog Reporter's Daily Dog crowns Apple's MacBook Air 'the easiest computer to hack.' The company's iPhone also experienced a similar conundrum. Maybe Apple should focus more on security issues instead of design.

At least you can take the carpool lane. I believe it's called, ménage à trois.
