I have no opinion on the password hacking (especially

with it), but this is to me distasteful. The media was alerted, and that
media was of all things The Register? It's not exactly a site known for
its thoughtful or balanced journalism.
To be fair, I wrote this up on my blog because I really enjoyed this
little piece of history, and put it on lobste.rs, expecting the usual
20 regulars to like it. I did not expect the story to take off like
this!
(I also declined interview questions from The Register and Ars
Technica, because I don't have anything to add there and did not even
find the end result.)
