Interesting questions: 1. Why did Anthony Weiner tweet about the time in Seattle before the dic-pic was sent to, of all places, Seattle? Was this a coincidence? Or a secret shout-out to a private-message paramour? 2. The Comely Coed called Weiner her "boyfriend" and friends commented that she had a "crush" on him. Are we to believe the hackers knew the one woman in the world who might be interested in a dic-pic from the homely anteater Anthony Weiner? Were they monitoring several thousand accounts to find the one girl expressing a romantic interest in the bizarre homonculous Anthony Weiner? 3. The Comely Coed, we are to believe, a college girl, received a wholly unsolicited dic-pic from a married sitting Congressman. Why did she react so calmly -- as if she expected such a picture, and desired it? If she had not expected it or desired it, wouldn't it be normal for her to comment, "Hey, a Congressman just sent me a picture of his dork; what's that all about?" But no, she took it sort of... shockingly well. Why? Did the hackers plan on that too? Did they plan on everything in the future happening just as it did? This is the perfect focus group to ask this question of: When you send unsolicited dic-pics to random coeds, how do they usually take it? As well as Anthony Weiner's I-swear-your-honor-I-don't-know-this-woman Comely Coed? Or... less well? 4. Weiner claims his accounts were "hacked," which usually means another user has changed passwords and locked the genuine user out; and yet Weiner gains control of his account just four minutes after the hacking. How? Is he a hacker, too? With leet counter-hacking skills and counter-hacking program tools at the ready? Or did he call in an expert to fix matters in four minutes? I'm told you can't "hack" an account when it's already in use, by the way. 5. Why did the "hacker" bother to upload the picture to Weiner's real Yfrog picture account? Why bother with such a subtle detail in a silly hack joke? Why go to such efforts to make it appear as if Weiner took it, uploaded it, and sent it himself? 6. Despite the fact that this is a Verified Twitter account, supposedly vetted by Twitter to insure that the named individual is in fact the account's user, we have had no incident report from Twitter on the "hack," or notice of a failure in its security, or cautions as to how to prevent the same "hack" from occurring to us. 7. Shortly after this "hack," the Comely Coed deleted her entire Twitter account. And then traces of her online life, including credits on papers and articles, began disappearing. Was this the same "hack" team that sent the dic-pic? Why are they doing this? Why are they being so thorough? They just hacked a congressman, now they're being brazen and erasing the net-presence of another innocent party? Why? Do they want to spend 10 years in jail? 8. Anthony Weiner is known for being a camera whore. He is perpetually venting for the cameras. Or, tenting for the camera, bad-dum-dum-tsss. Why has he not called a press conference to protest this outrage? To appear with the FBI to announce an investigation, and vow the culprits will be caught? To assure his constituents -- who do have to fear this! -- that he takes hacking and identity theft seriously? Why has his reaction been to try to kill the story and deflect it with jokes about how he's gaining Twitter followers on Michelle Bachmann? This is a joking matter? A hacking? Someone sending sexually explicit photographs from your account to a college girl you supposedly don't know? And he's laughing about that? It's just all a big joke? Really? Really? Really? Where is the FBI? The IC3 unit will be on this like Anthony Weiner on a coed. Why are they not involved? Why is there no statement? Does he intend to just let these brazen hackers -- who go after Congressmen, sending sexually explicit material to young women -- go free? As what? A goof? A ha-ha college prank? Really? Really? One joke to end with. You know who the real victim is, here? Hanes. .... in order to Direct Message someone -- those are the private dirty-time messages -- you both need to follow each other. And they were following each other. Isn't that convenient? Why, it's almost as if Anthony Weiner was having a sexy chat with this Comely Coed and meant to Direct Message (private message) her a dirty picture and accidentally sent it over his public channel... ..... What could possibly cause a big macher Congressman decide to follow a kid in college? 1.bp.blogspot.com 3.bp.blogspot.com Ohhhhhhhh. Oh. Ohhhhh. Oh, right. The normal things. ace.mu.nu
