Security Theater

Perhaps many of the commenters here should read the linked articles. The site that was taken down was a mailing list archive.

The owner of the site would have removed the information, but was not really given any notice before the take down.

Worse is that the list had been available on the web for over nine days before MySpace went after this one archive of the list. The list can still be found with Google.

Taking down this one copy of the list did nothing to help security for MySpace users or even make a dent in availability of the information.

Indeed. And who here will petition to have 'google.com' revoked because of it?

Anyone?

GoDaddy is out of control.
