Maybe before you tell us all how stupid Gov. Palin is you should wait for some facts.
Like does she really use Yahoo email, does she conduct government business on Yahoo, does she post government files to Yahoo.
You’re jumping to a lot of conclusions.
This looks real folks - at least at first pass.
All the zipped files including all the emails, photos, addresses and family pics are on-line at Wikileaks. Hoping this is just a very clever spoof.
despicable scum
“I work in IT and guarding information for my company is of the highest priority. Information management can’t be left to the boobs at Yahoo.”
Yahoo is pretty well run from a tech side. Their email is more dependable than many other organizations.
Users usually bypass the official systems because they are too difficult to use or undependable. I agree she shouldn’t be using yahoo for official business but that doesn’t mean people should be blackmailing her.
It may also have been a tool to reach out to people with something easy to remember.
LOL!
It really burns me that so many are out to get her. We need more just like her in government.
“Looks bogus to me.”
Leave me out of it please!
Most of the ‘email’ seems to be personal in nature. Includes blurry picture of Bristol and Trig on a plane, list of emails with dates, subjects, size an all her contacts, which also appear to be real.
Yes, she uses Yahoo. This has been well reported.
What did Obama know, and when did he know it?!
I suspect some IT staffer in Alaska government dug this up at the request of some angry good-old-boys who had their subpeonas handed back to them.
The only safe way is encryption, from your computer to theirs.
I looked on a hackers forum and it appears that someone hacked, posted the password, and a good Samaritan hacker then logged in a reset the password. Apparently they didn’t get more than a few messages before this occurred.
not sure we should republish this info (email contacts list)
From what they have posted, it only makes her look better. They must be heartbroken.
But from follow up links and further research at wikileaks does look to be legit and not made up.
However that said I don't think it was her primary gov email. Much like my gmail mail while does get some work related stuff while I'm on the road it is not my primary work email.
This looks more like a private email account and not her work one.
Either way it is still a felony to hack and intercept it.
Take it as a compliment that so many who are evil are out to destroy her. Jesus provides the reason for the hatred:
John 15
18”If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. 19If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. 20Remember the words I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’[b] If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. 21They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the One who sent me. 22If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin. 23He who hates me hates my Father as well. 24If I had not done among them what no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin. But now they have seen these miracles, and yet they have hated both me and my Father. 25But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated me without reason.’
Notice that knowing the truth makes you responsible for it, and they HATE that idea of being unappealably responsible for their behavior.
