AT&T Receives Security 101 Crash Course
AT&T's image was tarnished even further this week when hackers exploited a flaw in an AT&T Web application and published over 114,000 e-mail addresses of iPad 3G customers. Security experts said the attack was fairly simple and stemmed from a poorly designed AT&T Web application.
In addition to the embarrassment of having the e-mail addresses of its high profile iPad customers made public (and an FBI probe into the matter), AT&T may also have to deal with the wrath of Apple CEO Steve Jobs, who can't be happy about this latest example of the exclusive U.S. iPhone carrier making headlines for all the wrong reasons.
The latest rumors have T-Mobile getting the iPhone even before Verizon does, and you'd have to think that eventually, one of these rumors is going to end up being true.
