Both the Citizen and the Star are reporting that the UA network has been hacked from a French IP address. The initial break-in happened back in November, but only back on Tuesday did they actually find that something had gone wrong. Services to students appear now to be restored, but there are concerns over theft of UA credit card numbers and employees’ Social Security Numbers.

Now, why would someone from a socialist country need to steel anything? Hehheh.
Well, France has a bunch of Muslums. And judging from the riots they had a while back, there are Muslum terrorists over there.
I once learned from the local TV news that the U of A has a very special program: The Black Web Project (or was it “Shadow Net”). The BWP tracks internet activity (such as blogs) that are clearly written by Terrorists doing their hate-mongering. Then, they track the location of acts of terror. And then, they try to relate it to the content of the terrorists on the web, and even the location of the internet-servers.
My guess is that a terrorist from France was taking a shot at trying to screw up the BWP.
