i done mind if the site goes away, only reason i go there is because thats where the crap i read gets posted for some reason, if it didnt exist, it would probably get posted to a better place on the internet.

Only use Pastebin occasionally.

Also, this article makes me wonder what goes through a hacker's minds even more. It seems stupid to attack the site that you rely on to get the message out..

So he didn't do anything about security until it was he himself was at risk. This is why I why never trust cloud computing. Companies just don't care until it's actually affecting THEM - and by that time the damage has already been done (to US).
