Well, her profile was changed to Public and her unique name was changed to JesusLust, and then the post occurred. So it's pretty clear she was hacked. Looking at her profile page, it's mundane stuff until the embarassing post.

If she made the post public by accident, however, would it not be possible that she could go to great lengths to limit damage to her reputation (e.g. blame an account hack, computer backdoor, etc)? Seems to me like it's a difficult one to verify one way or another unless the post was obviously made from another IP/ISP etc. Having said that, giving the user the benefit of the doubt is probably the right - or at least the polite - thing to do :-) Thomas -- Thomas Mannfred Carlsson [email protected] SMS: +35-850-07-07-850 PGP Key ID: 0x69570687 _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
