Wednesday January 12, 2005 T-Mobile Hacker Gets Celeb Pix
Gizmodo reports that a hacker at T-Mobile got into their network servers and had access to Secret Service e-mails and docs, but more importantly had access to celebrity T-Mobile Sidekick II (Java-powered PDA/cell phone combo device) accounts. It was reported he had access to grainy photos taken by the PDA's mobile cameras of Demi Moore, Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, and Ashton Kutcher. See: T-Mobile Hacker Gets Celeb Pix Goes to show you that while Java and J2ME technology can protect the device well, if a hacker gets onto the back-end server (which is not the responsibility of Java/J2ME technology), it's all over... and, thus the public gets grainy photos of Demi Moore, Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, and Ashton Kutcher. A very scientific cause/effect relationship. ;-)
