WASHINGTON - Personal data on up to 50,000 active Navy and National Guard personnel were among those stolen from a Veterans Affairs employee last month, the government said Saturday in a disclosure that goes beyond what VA initially reported.

Great, more to worry about. :(

This, combined with the massive theft of over 25 million vet's information being compromised so recently, looks far less than an accident to me than a blatant case of technological warfare. And the media reports of "carelessness" are about as believeable as Clinton joining Virgin's Annonymous.

Whether all of this is from the Bush-hating whores in the CIA, the VA, the NSA the FBI or wherever, stuff like this does not happen by accident.

Brave New World, folks. And it is not pretty.

Yup--gettin' all the "ducks in a row" for the anti-christ to take over. Glad I won't be here when he does!

The Anti-Christ was revealed long ago as Bill Gates. And we tech-heads have spent the last 20 plus years dealing with him. That is the easy part.

Shoot the Anti-Christ and his toadies now, one by one! That is the greatest public service any human being can do.

How do you figure? He only came up with the greatest operating platform in the world for a computer. He didn't invent hackers or even thieves who steal laptops with sensitive info. Don't punish Bill Gates for making a dream come true.

Bill Gates cant produce a decent product if his life depended on it, every OS he's put out is buggier than all get-out and needs to be patched up the wazoo.... almost as bad as Starsiege with Sierra's constant patching and Tribes also.

microsoft is great, it crushes the competition because it is a better product for consumers.
the fact that a vast majority of people prefer windows is evidence enough for me
would it be nice if he had come up with the origional windows design himself? sure, but the fact is he has build one of the greatest companies ever, only standard oil and other giants can compete

and regarding the thread, i hope whoever stole that information suffers greatly for it

No the reason why Micro$oft crushes its competition is due to the fact that they produce a product designed for the most stupid pc users in the universe.

Thats why and also strong-arm tactics of a coproration that has a stranglehold on the market.

but most pc users are stupid (in computer literacy)

for those that want to write their own programs or need something that is good with a/v microsoft isnt the answer

but i love huge corporations

Rink, Eagle is right. If it wasn't for Windows doing alot of things automatically then PC techs would be overwhelmed with trivial stuff. Gates knew this and made a system that a child can use.

ROFL Do you think this shit up all by yourself or is this something your dog told you the last time you smoked crack?

Bill Gates as "The Antichrist". Right... the guy is 145 lbs of geek. If it wasn't for his check book, the only way he'd get any ass is if his finger rips the toilet paper. The guy is about as threatening as a smurf, and a girl scout with Down Syndrome could whip his ass in a fight. Yeah, thats about one threatening son of a bitch.

As for his software, face it, he's a thief. He stole his living from Steve Jobs. But no matter HOW he got there, the majority of the computers in use run Windows, and damn near all new software that gets written is for use in Windows. So whether you like windows or hate it, if you want to use the new shit coming out, guess you're gonna have to look for that MS label.

As for the other shit... PeeWee Herman is closer to "The Antichrist" than Bill Gates.
