2008 -Sarah Palin succumbed to a hacker in a different way – through her Yahoo! (http://www.geekazine.com/tag/yahoo)email. The infiltrator gained access by using common information to reset the password. David Kernell then posted her email and new password on 4chan.org under the alias “Rubico”. It showed that by using common information to set up an account, it could also turn into a “back door” for someone who would know that information.
