Re: They should be Fired

said by Jonbo298:

Did you even read the article or the headline for that matter. They DID fire the ones who had no authorization to access the account.
They did, but give a few minutes and others here will chime in that it's unfair that Obama gets "special treatment" when compared to the warrant less wiretapping laws. The fact is, Obama would have never known about it, from what I've read, Verizon discovered the issue, not Obama, the Secret Service, or anyone else for that matter.

So Verizon discovered people abusing access and took care of the matter. Verizon wanted to get some PR and decided to tell the entire world instead of just notifying Obama like they did, fire those responsible and just let drama no longer continue.

Instead, we keep hearing about this over and over, made out to be some serious security breach when it's nothing more than employees breaking the rules and getting fired over it.

Not so as Verizon once they discovered the problem is required to notify the subscriber in this case that being Obama or someone responsible for that account.
