Is it still up?

Why hasn`t anyone crashed and burned it yet?

You don’t crash and burn a potential cash cow.

In any case, I watched Kennedy. One of the funny things was his answer to his critics who say “no one has penetrated the system.” He smiles and comes back with, “that’s because they have no detection system to tell them if it has been hacked.”

He says they’re telling the truth but misrepresenting all in the same comment.

I’ve read that it’s still up because most hackers are waiting for it to fill up with more people’s data before they harvest it.

yes - even Hillary (and here peer on the repub side) advised Obama to take it down before it is hacked and he said no. It has to be illegal - forcing people to use a website you refuse to secure.

That [select * from users] is brutal and seems to be the most popular search! That’s not a photoshop? That’s real? How could any software be THAT open?

And you notice that not a single republican has introduced a bill to shut it down based on this. In the end they do not care anymore than the democrats do.

I think Obama collected NSA data on all of congress and has used it to immobilize them while he destroys the constitution and works to take over the country “I have a pen” style - they’ll let him.

I wonder if there is even one senator without info that incriminates him - Obama has the “staff” to fake accusations. This is such a scarey time in our history - how to make it to the next elected President before The Won claims Kingship.

At the very least - identity theft. You pay a fine if you don’t allow your personal data to be stolen.

It is too fertile a ground for information thieves. Why kill the goose that lays the golden eggs?

I think they are more interested in a voting issue rather that protecting citizens.

In their twisted world, leaving up a broken system will get them votes as long as the system is in place, they have no interest in making it go away. In fact, they would love for it to stay in place broken for the next twenty years so they can dust it off each election cycle.

Yes - he wanted most Americans to sign up and then their identities are stolen...*adjusts tin foil hat*...so then he proposes replacing social security numbers with something more portable ...*tin foil hat pinching ears*...so he issues a new set of numbers (coded by political party) and mandates they be tattooed on the populace...the hand or forehead etc......or Cloward-Priven...there has to be reason for THIS much idiocy.
