Reporters, incompetent IT companies.

One of the stories on the well known IT website today is.
A Swedish IT company got there servers hacked, again. Now first of all, the word "again" got me interested. Did they... yep, sure enough, they have been hacked before. It can happen to anybody, once, but not twice (we know of two times, who knows, it can be more than two times) My opinion about this company was clear in two seconds, I knew it when I read the word, "again" And i all most shoot out in to orbit, when i heard how the servers where hacked. They used a well know security flaw in the 2.4 kernel. Sweet mother of god!!! 2.4, who uses 2.4? thats an OLD version. I am SO glad that they are changing there OS from Linux, to something else, hope it's M$ that will make life so much easier for them, and there servers will be so much securer, not!
Now my attention turned to the reporter. An IDIOT, it's clear, with out a shadow of a doubt, an IDIOT. A normal reporter had spotted the news a mile away, but he didn't. His story was all about that the company was going to throw out Linux, and install something else. Dear Mr reporter, that company would not be able to make anything secure, not even forth knox. And dear Mr reporter, the news here is that a IT company, a company charging there customers for there services, can't maintain, and secure there own servers, that's the news, that's the BIG news. But I guess it's hard to see anything, with your nose so far up some ones butt.
So boys and girls, what have we learned today? A reporter is still an IDIOT, will always be. And we know that to put Linux in the hands of incompetent IDIOTS, is as dangerous as putting a gun in the hands of a monkey.
Be safe folks. A new IDIOT is born every minute, so use a rubber next time.
