FAQ: Compromised Commenting Accounts on Gawker Media
- cuchoperl 16y agoQ: 8) Who was responsible for the security breach? How did it happen? //Answer: A group calling itself Gnosis has claimed credit for hacking our servers. I would say Gawker is responsible for the security breach.
- iWhatever 16y agoGawker is responsible in the same way that you're responsible that your house got robbed because someone found your hidden door key under a rock in front of your house. Ethically, it's clear that the hackers are wrong. Should Gawker have had better security? No doubt.
