FBI Denies It Held iPhone UDIDs Stolen By AntiSec 216
judgecorp writes "The FBI has denied the UDID codes released yesterday came from an agent's laptop, as claimed by the AntiSec hacker group. The FBI says it does not hold such data, and the attack never happened. However, the agent named by AntiSec is real, and some of the published UDID codes have been found to be genuine. So where did they come from?"
This sort of fits... (Score:5, Informative)
It's worth reiterating from the other story that Apple doesn't even accept apps that reference the UDID any more, and it was never used as a security or authentication feature in the first place. It's like saying "lol, you got pwned, I just got the MD5 hash of your entire hard drive, LULZ LULZ LULZ WE ARE ANON"
If the FBI really wanted some useful information, they could swipe your ESN/MEID and track you down to a cellular level. Hell, they probably already have. Smile at the camera!
