Sarah Palin to testify against hacker

Politico reports the former Alaskan governor will testify against the son of a left-wing senator who's charged with hacking into her e-mail accounts and publishing the letters:
David Kernell, the son of a Democratic state representative in Tennessee, is accused of hacking Palin’s private Yahoo account and posting some of her e-mails online. The FBI searched Kernell’s apartment on September 21, less than a week after the e-mails were posted on the gossip website Gawker.

[...]

Kernell has said he used publicly available information to access Palin’s e-mail account, which he later changed the password to after posting some of her personal e-mails and contacts – including the e-mail addresses of her children and some of her staffers. He's accused of sharing the new password he put on her account with at least one other person and then trying to wipe the record of him doing so from his computer.
Clearly, he didn't understand that you can't wipe the info from a computer - thanks to modern tech, it's possible to scan the hard disk and find the traces. Why don't felons like Kernell learn?

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
