how do u know that AT&T doesnt take security seriously ,, databases are the most secure part.

the hacker must be really brilliant :))

It's not that AT&T didn't take security seriously. The hackers were brilliant enough
to hack into highly-secure AT&T's Computer systems!!!

Those hackers...

so data is not at all secure ... but these guys are great ..
