Google Mac blog hacked?
I was browsing my RSS feeds today and came across a very strange post on the Official Google Mac Blog. Screenshot below.
I went straight to the blog to investigate and, lo and behold, the offending post has now gone. Is this another example of Blogger being hacked in a very public way? Or is it an inside job?
We’ve seen Google Blogs being hacked before, so you would have thought they would have sured up their security. In fact, I seem to recall that when a previous hack occurred, the offender just tried to register the account through blogger, no trickery involved. This new message posted earlier today certainly implies a similar situation. What do you think? Is it just a Google staff member not realising that the blog they just registered for is publicly viewable? Or something more nefarious?
