arstechnica.com — Working from a tip, names and SSNs of several people involved in DOJ investigations were found to be accessible on their public website with a minimum of effort. If the .gov is this bad, how can they expect businesses to be better?

What this is news? If you snoop around any country's websites you'll eventually find something that should not have been uploaded. British plans for a nuke, anyone?Reported: Lame.

"If the .gov is this bad, how can they expect businesses to be better?"Who said that government was good at anything?

> Seriosuly, do you not see the stupidity in referring to the government as "the .gov"?Yeah, no joke... I was recently asked to verify if a cert issued for a .gov https site was legit or not (they hadn't used the standard issuing authority for .gov sites).Personally, I'm wondering when somebody is going to finally realize they should do an inventory of .gov/.mil sites to find out just how many are even hosted in the United States at all.The United States of American (AKA .gov), powered by India; I guess socialism *does* work.Just like those "Buy American" flags stuck to the windows of government buildings... what they should really say is "Buy UNICORP".> No one pays 50%.Cumulitively? All the nickle and dime taxes US citizens pay? Probably pretty close to that number.I've lived where there's a 18% GST (sales tax) and anything over ~$30k got taxed at +50%. It's not a pretty sight (...and once the politicians realize they *CAN* get away with it, there's no turning back).
