AT&T the company of evil loses a laptop, and loads of important data.

So AT&T being the horrible company that it is has now taken one more step in its very crappy path of destruction. On top of having this laptop stolen from a car, the data was unencrypted and it contained social security numbers as well as payroll data. To make matters worse it took the company 8 days before they notified anyone and 10 more days before they gave instructions on how to sign up for credit watch. One employee said he was very upset with his company. I imagine I would be too if I was now one of the many people who have to worry about fraud and identity theft after this incident. This is a perfect example of why I hate big companies who don’t understand how dangerous virtual property really is.

No commentsOne more reasion Burst.Net sucks!

Well over at the ServerComplete blog [the guys that host this site] are reporting this.
” Well BurstNET has struck again! I submitted a simple upgrade request for RAM for one of our customers still in the BurstNET facility and here we are, almost 7 days later, without the additional RAM.
After pestering the live AIM support agent for BurstNET I found out that the sales, billing, and order processing departments decided to take a nice long weekend, well more like the entire week off.
According to the AIM rep, no new orders have been processed nor have any sales or billing tickets. This really irritated me, but there is not much I can do except call or email them
The prices at BurstNET are unbelievable, but it goes without saying, you get what you pay for!
Now, for those of you reading, no worries! We no longer are working with new servers from BurstNET and are phasing all existing servers out as people upgrade. All new signups and major upgrades are getting shiny new hardware out of Dallas
