HEHE.
Yet he is swearing there is no way anyone hacked him.

I wouldn't. The days of hiring the thief to catch thieves are over in cyberspace IMO. There are enough "white hats" out there with network security backgrounds. Hiring the now assumed ex-con is not worth it.
I'd like to see public executions of guys like this with the audience done pay-per-view and the positions in the firing squad sold via eBay.
HEHE.

OMG!
There are 9 posts in here already that say that Apple is not to be blamed. Can Apple ever be blamed for anything???????!!!!!!! Talk about the ultimate fanboys.
Oh great. For those of us that do have secure passwords we're going to get stuck entering our CCC and iTunes password more often.
Having to enter your password over and over again just to update apps is annoying enough --- especially if you already have a passcode.
123456 isn't a "hard to hack" password. Neither is 654321 or qwerty, iloveyou, etc.
In one analysis, 20% of users use about 5000 common passwords.
Plus other ways in how your accounts can be compromised:

Someone steals your credit card info and buy things from any store, would you go to the store for a refund or contact your credit card?

Yes, in certain circumstances. More likely to see a dictionary type attack than a straight brute-force though. It doesn't make any sense in this situation though. Three failed login attempts and you're locked out.Do people even do brute force style attacks anymore?
OMG!

Apple has really become the "Spin Zone" lately and can do no wrong. Anyone ever think about why they have so many disappointed iPhone 4 customers and the rushed release which obviously had nothing to do with quarterly earnings? Or maybe the fact they created a "bumper" i.e. band-aid for their design flaw?
I understand that they have stock holders to answer to but can they at least own up to something? Sometimes owning up to something proves you are not without flaw but at least willing to listen.
Did Steve finally get a hold of the Microsoft 101 book? He really is executing it nicely.
LOL sure you do.
Although realistically the chances of any one person knowing the itunes status of 30 other people for something that just happened is zero... but sure keep pretending.

How interesting! You all live in the same place do you? Nurses treating you well?of course, if Apple says 400 were hacked, then it must be true....
keep drinking the kool-aid....
I know at least 30 of those 400 then...
I must be the luckiest fellow on earth...
OMG!

Lately I have been asked the iTunes password whenever I'm not downloading anything, usually whe I wake the phone, never happened before.
I always press cancel, still is weird.
Ever happened to you?
LOL sure you do.
