Email Security not a Palin Skill

Sarah Palin is obviously incapable of keeping her email secure, a fact evidenced by the recent hacking of her oh-so-cleverly-named email accounts, gov.sarah@yahoo.com and gov.palin@yahoo.com. Is this really who we want influencing US security policy? Unfortunately, the hackers involved are also claiming the name Anonymous, the loosely affiliated internet mischief-makers (as they would probably refer to themselves) that I've written about previously. For more detailed coverage of this, their latest exploit, see the ZDNet article. Correction: Another more recent ZDNet article corrects my previous assertion and Anonymous is not responsible for the Palin hackery; a college student by the name of Rubico is the hacker who has claimed responsibility.
