My e-mail was Hacked!

[Tiberius]

You should add another class to your schedule that includes reading comprehension. As I said from the beginning, I was guessing as to how it might have happened and it was all my personal opinion.

Naturally it is your personal opinion, given that you presented no evidence to back any of your assertions up. I'm not annoyed at the fact you gave your personal opinion; I'm annoyed that you presented it as some kind of authority, even when you had no reason to do so. I'm also annoyed that you made claims that there was an issue with Gmail security, when there is absolutely no evidence of that either.

Your alternative is hushmail.com, which uses PGP to encrypt emails that are sent. This only works between hushmail.com accounts, and accounts that already have PGP keys setup. If I were to send an encrypted email from a hushmail.com account to a gmail.com account, it would be unreadable by the gmail.com account, since gmail.com does not use PGP keys by default. Additionally, encryption of emails wasn't the problem here; the problem was that someone broke into the account in the first place. hushmail.com uses a username / password combination to log on, which is the same as Gmail. This isn't a flawed system; it works fine everywhere else on the web.

And the links I included, including those related to lawful Wifi hacks via the Dutch courts, was for Zeus consideration after Gmail told him the hack originated in the Netherlands. While Gmail email security is at issue here, as everyone but you knows.

I could link to a number of articles about hacking in the Netherlands. I'm sure someone in the Netherlands hacked a public library terminal at some point, but that doesn't mean it is applicable in this case. WiFi hacking has nothing to do with it; something you'd know if you stopped pretending that Google searches can tell you everything, and actually spent time studying such things, like I have. Again, I feel the need to yell this in your face...THERE IS NO GMAIL SECURITY ISSUE HERE. Gmail wasn't hacked; a Gmail account was. If someone guesses a password to an account, it doesn't mean the service is somehow flawed; it means the password was.

Meanwhile I do enjoy someone resorting to personal attacks, prefaced by an alleged educational resume outlining why they feel entitled. And all that after you prove you don't actually read the posts of the person you target. How small of you.

I never "resorted" to personal attacks. I attacked you as the authority you tried to set yourself up as, but I didn't stop there. In fact, if you go back and read over my posts, you'll see that I deconstructed your arguments logically, and used references to dispute them.

As for my "alleged educational resume", I think you'll find all the relevant citations here: http://adrianhayter.com, and here: http://cryptogasm.com
