I Bet You Are Happy You Bought a Android!!! :D

AntiSec an Anonymous associated hacker group publically released one million Apple Unique Device Identifiers (UDID?s) from a compromised Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) laptop.

That's an interesting read, but your title's a bit misleading. A less misleading title would be ? FBI data on Apple compromised by Anonymous break-away AntiSec ?.

And the FBI is saying they didn't even have the data to begin with. There's speculation the agent whose laptop they claimed they hacked was involved in damaging anonymous.

And you think Android is excluded from the FBI hacked list? Ha! Think again. We just haven't exposed them yet

The UDID's themselves aren't worth that much but what I think a lot of people are overlooking here is why we're those codes on an FBI computer in the first place? Something like that would go against our constitutional rights and therefore put the FBI in the wrong (wouldn't be the first time lol). If they have UDID's then there's no telling what else they have and don't think Android is out of the pot here! If anything Android would be easier to get to because of the ability to install 3rd party apps. Just think an FBI agent could remote install tracking apps, spyware, etc without you even knowing by just getting your Google account info. Yes it would be against the rules but the FBI is known for never following rules and laws.

They weren't on an fbi computer. Anonymous made it up in order to smear an FBI agent involved in destroying their organization. The udids came from an app developer that was hacked.
