this mess has cost a few hundred million to create and republican led congress along with 67 democrats(enough to override a presidential veto) voted that by law if they know your info was hacked they have to tell you now word on the street is that when it hits the senate(democrat controlled senate )they will kill the bill so they don't have to take blame , when they let your info, they forced you to get , gets stolen. ah, the American government http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/j...-cracked-healt/ This post has been edited by jstcrsn: Jan 22 2014, 02:11 PM |

Right wing wack job site INFOWARS is running the story. The fact that it's complete bunk never seems to get through.
http://www.infowars.com/computer-security-...e-in-4-minutes/ I love the idea of media news.
Did you hear about the millions of accounts and personal identity info hacked form TARGET? If you shopped at Target in the past 6 months you are probly having your identity stolen. Great huh? the "private sector" seems to be getting the same treatment. well this guy can hack the obamacare website and get 70,000 documents this mess has cost a few hundred million to create and republican led congress along with 67 democrats(enough to override a presidential veto) voted that by law if they know your info was hacked they have to tell you now word on the street is that when it hits the senate(democrat controlled senate )they will kill the bill so they don't have to take blame , when they let your info, they forced you to get , gets stolen. ah, the American government http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/j...-cracked-healt/ It turns out that he didn't hack the website. QUOTE ( https://www.trustedsec.com/january-201...care-gov/)we never accessed 70,000 records nor is it directly on the healthcare.gov website (a sub-site for the infrastructure). The number 70,000 was a number that was tested for as an example through utilizing Google’s advanced search functionality as well as normally browsing the website. No dumping of data, malicious intent, hacking, or even viewing of the information was done. We do not support the statements from the news organizations. Isn't it funny how media plays such a big role in spreading lies or mis information of the truth. Oh well. This post has been edited by Todd Simpson: Jan 25 2014, 07:54 PM |

I could not find this article from the link you posted, however, there is no question as to the security vulnerabilities at healthcare.gov as has been testified to in congress. Also there is no question as to how poorly written, tested and implemented this website was from the very beginning of it's launch. http://news.cnet.com/8301-1009_3-57617335-...ting-to-happen/ I can't find the article I read about getting info from the website but the way I understood it, they were able to obtain the info without actually hacking into the site simply by using a web browser, and that they could have obtained hundreds of thousands of people's sensitive information had they not stopped after 4 minutes.

There's security vulnerabilities with ANYTHING on line ... as well as with hard copies. Things get breached. People steal sht all friggin' day. We have to deal with that reality now ... and forever. We all did it to ourselves because we INSIST on ease and access. We reap what we sow. It's always been that way - it always will be that way. The info they can get from me via the healthcare website is minimal at this point and FAR less destructive (to me personally) than what they could glean from my amazon or pay-pal accounts believe me.

Anyone who has access to your Soc Sec # can do a lot of damage ... if they choose to(?). I just can't get that paranoid about that stuff anymore. I mean at this point it's useless to worry about it. So many agencies have your soc sec # CC numbers, address, etc. from the DMV to CC companies to your bank. Do you own a home? Whoever services your loan probably has more info on you than any other agency. What about the IRS?

I don't know if Covered California is different but other than yearly family income information, I didn't have to enter any 'payment' info - that came later through the actual health care provider's (Anthem/Blue Cross in my case) site. Everything else was all 'standard' stuff that any bank, school, DMV or govt. agency already has.
*Speaking of living in the forest in a cottage ... last night I went to a party and forgot my phone. As I was thinking about where it might be I noticed that nobody at the party was on theirs . Man was it civilized! And these folks were all at least 20 years younger than me. I have renewed hope. This post has been edited by klasaine: Jan 26 2014, 05:27 PM -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

Here is the article pasted from the link I feat we are getting in to political back and forth though and I'd like to keep it more about guitar so this will be my last post in this in this thread. Just to be clear, my personal feelings on the healthcare web site are not very positive. My feelings on obamamcare in general though are quite positive. It's shameful that a country like the USA has had to wait this long to provide it's citizens with affordable health care. But finally, we have it. Now if we could only improve our education system to be as good as say, Sweden, Finland, Norway, etc. We would really be moving But that would require "standards" which may never happen.
=--------- ARTICLE FROM LINK (complete with FAUX (FOX) news video clip) <h1 class="subheadlinemain"> Computer Security Expert Claims he Hacked the ObamaCare Website in 4 Minutes </h1> libertyblitzkrieg.com January 21, 2014 The hits just keep on coming for ObamaCare. It was less than two weeks ago that I highlighted the potential premium rate death spiral that ObamaCare faces due to the fact that only old and sick people are signing up for the program. Now it seems there are further security related concerns plaguing the site, as cyber-security expert David Kennedy recently claimed that “gaining access to 70,000 personal records of Obamacare enrollees via HealthCare.gov took about 4 minutes.” It’s actually hard to be this incompetent if you tried. More from the Washington Times: The man who appeared before Congress last week to explain the security pitfalls of HealthCare.gov took to Fox News on Sunday to explain just how easy it was to penetrate the website. Hacking expert David Kennedy told Fox’s Chris Wallace that gaining access to 70,000 personal records of Obamacare enrollees via HealthCare.gov took about 4 minutes and required nothing more than a standard browser, the Daily Caller reported. “And 70,000 was just one of the numbers that I was able to go up to and I stopped after that,” he said. “You know, I’m sure it’s hundreds of thousands, if not more, and it was done within about a 4 minute timeframe. So, it’s just wide open.” “You can literally just open up your browser, go to this, and extract all this information without actually having to hack the website itself,” he said. Mr. Kennedy testified before Congress Thursday that HealthCare.gov was “100 percent” insecure, Washington Free Beaconreported. I could not find this article from the link you posted, however, there is no question as to the security vulnerabilities at healthcare.gov as has been testified to in congress. Also there is no question as to how poorly written, tested and implemented this website was from the very beginning of it's launch. http://news.cnet.com/8301-1009_3-57617335-...ting-to-happen/ I can't find the article I read about getting info from the website but the way I understood it, they were able to obtain the info without actually hacking into the site simply by using a web browser, and that they could have obtained hundreds of thousands of people's sensitive information had they not stopped after 4 minutes. WELL SAID!!!! I made a pledge to myself this year to try to post stuff that's worth posting. It's tempting to post everything sometimes for some folks. But it just adds to the "noise" of life and it's a bad thing IMHO. As a guide, any activity you do that people can assume you are doing (E.g. having lunch at lunch time, off to the gym/out to eat/etc.) is really not "news" and not really worth posting IMHO. The weirdest moment for me, was in November while I was in London and stopping by at a railway station, I noticed ALL the people on the sideway (believe me, they were MANY) who were staring into their phones... Weird moment, but that's how it goes... I am trying to eliminate the stupid constant text chatting on Facebook out of my life. If i have something to say, I will say it and that's it, no more time wasting
