Seriously guys? You find this surprising? T-mobiles systems have been breached by hackers more than once. Sidekick's data have been hacked more than once. If you didn't have at-leased your contacts backed up somewhere, you're an idiot. Lesson Learned eh?
Oh noes, It's not T-mobiles fault. Oh wait, who hired what once was Danger and now is Microsoft to handle their Sidekicks customers data? Who didn't care to oversee any operations or put forth any rules to protect consumer data? Umhmm. There is enough blame to spread around.
are you kidding me? they don't tell the ppl that are in charge of the sidekick backend how to do their job. they have a wireless network to run. that would be something that AT&T would try to do.
