Seriously? Personal info about the President was leaked? Not that this particular instance looks like a big deal. Doesn't the NSA secure the President's communication? That must be carrer-impacting-embarrassing for someone.
- kennywinker 14y agoPersonal information about someone who had their device name set to "Obama". Let's not get all crazy now.
- csmattryder 14y agoYeah, pretty sure Mr. President's device would probably be called "Barack's iDevice", grepping for that, now that'd be something.

- crag 14y agoYou do know that there are other people in world with the name Obama, right? I know for a fact, the NSA protects all communications from the president (and most of the top level folk in his administration). If this turns out to really be the president (which I doubt) it would be a MAJOR breech.
- mkhalil 14y agoFor a fact? How so?
- flogic 14y agoThey had news articles about protecting his phone back when he was elected.
- 27182818284 14y agoIt was an issue widely covered in the press, or at least widely covered enough that I remember people joking about it in monologues. Obama wanted to keep his blackberry and other gadgets in opposition to what the Secret Service wanted. They finally compromised with security-enhanced versions of the devices such as his so-called "Blackberry One" a pun off of Air Force One. Though I didn't hear anything about securing it when he got an iPad, I did see photos in the news of him carrying one. I would assume it would be equally vetted and locked down.
- crag 14y agoI'd have to kill ya if I told you. :) No I'm kidding of course. Obviously, I did work in that area, ages ago. And it's been like this for a long time, by the way. Even back in ancient times when we all used dials. The president lives in the ultimate bubble. Nothing gets in or out without being vetted.
