Dropbox security glitch meant any password worked yesterday
http://www.geek.com/articles/news/dropbox-security-glitch-meant-any-password-worked-yesterday-20110620/

thread on DropBox forums, no official comment yet:

... I first thought the guy (the OP) was a troll... well he's not... issue seems to be confirmed by others. See here too:

Thanks Logos. Seems a very weird behavior of Dropbox... I do not use it anymore but for an online backup, they should give security more attention...

Just been reading another old article about dropbox and privacy/security in one of my newsletters, Windows Secrets. I didn't pay it a lot of attention at the time as I don't use dropbox, but perhaps now it is even more relevant.

And in other news, a 2 headed monster formed with the intention of tearing things down with no idea what to replace them with. ::)

http://news.cnet.com/8301-27080_3-20072675-245/lulzsec-anonymous-announce-hacking-campaign/

Its formidable powers include Email theft, leaking private docs, DDoS, cannon fire w/ lizard blood, Lazors, and a skin hardened by 7 proxies.
This monster would be called by some name (Lulnonymous?), but one of its heads (the one that looks like a faceless suit) refuses all attempts at being named.



ok, done having fun now....

OT: Actually, that's a really good idea!  Better get on it before t-shirt hell or busted tees does!  ;D
